Hi, Some time ago I tried to use GlusterFS as storage for cloudstacka but I noticed that cloudstack uses the default settings for mount command.
By default mount command is using the UDP protocol but glusterfs works only using tcp. I think, if cloudstack developers could add "-o proto=tcp" to code glusterfs should works. For example: /bin/mount -t nfs -o proto=tcp IP:/share /mnt/gluster/ If you are using CitrixXen you should mount the share and make it as SR. For cloudstacka is clear because you should use the option PreSetup when creating PrimaryStorage. Personally, I doubt that using GlusterFS as a primary storage is a good solution but for secondary storage it should be very usefull. -- Regards, Tomasz Zięba Twitter: @TZieba LinkedIn: pl.linkedin.com/pub/tomasz-zięba-ph-d/3b/7a8/ab6/<http://pl.linkedin.com/pub/tomasz-zi%C4%99ba-ph-d/3b/7a8/ab6/> 2013/9/11 Jake G. <dj_dark_jungl...@yahoo.com> > Ive been reading that it is not possible to use Cloudstack with glusterfs > + VMware hosts? > > Can anyone confirm this? > > > > ________________________________ > From: Jake G. <dj_dark_jungl...@yahoo.com> > To: "users@cloudstack.apache.org" <users@cloudstack.apache.org> > Sent: Tuesday, September 10, 2013 7:26 PM > Subject: Cloustack 4.1.0 + GlusterFS > > > Hi all, > > I have a working Cloudstack environment on Centos 6.4.
