Hi,
Local Storage is perfectly usable for that, in fact if you do lack a
centralised storage solution then it can work very well.
In case of an outage of the underlying hypervisor you could delete them
(or mark as removed in DB), they'll get recreated elsewhere.
Also the system VMs are rarely mission critical, in that you can get
away with a little downtime since it does not impact the running of the
production VMs.
All in all, recommended afaiac and I've run such setups in the past
without problems.

Hello All,
Do you now or have you ever used local storage for system VMs? I can
see the benefit on a few levels, but I can also see why it’s not
needed. I could see how live migrations would be a pain.
Has or does anyone put their system VMS on local storage versus
shared?
