Hi, Check if you hypervisor host can access gluster storage. Try to mount it at hypervisor manually and check the files. We have used CS with Ceph and seing no problem to set it up as primary storage (in addition to NFS).

We have a physical server with CS management running on it & two hosts using 1 drive as an OS and the remaining 3 drives per host as a Gluster volume. If we run the install of CloudStack per the guide, and use basic NFS for storage, everything works. As soon as we try to use Gluster, CS will see the storage, report it correctly, but nothing works - system vm's go into a loop of starting-stopped and no vm's can be provisioned. The log keeps showing "Primary secondary storage is not even started" - not really anything else that makes any sense in the logs though.. We've tried this with using both a shared mount point on the hosts as well as using the Gluster option in primary storage setup. Both report the correct amount of storage, but it's basically unusable since these system VM's can't start. That said, it seems like these system vm's are a single point of failure - we had a handful of VM's running for testing on NFS on the management server - if anything gets jacked up on those system vm's, it appears to essentially take all of the VM's offline. Unless we had something configured wrong. Is there any documentation on correctly using Gluster with CS?
