Hi Paolo, If your storage is detected by multipathd as a multipath capable device (it should, even if connected through only one connection), oVirt will detect it as "fibre channel" storage and selecting that as the storage type should work.
We use a similar setup (with Dell powervault storage) and haven't had any problems with it.

Hi all! My name is Paolo and I'm the sysadmin of the research group (infosec) where I work. Recently our infrastructure was updated and I'm planning to use oVirt as virtualisation manager. The new "toys" they gave me are - HP DL360G9 (x2) - HP MSA1040 (double controller with mini SAS connection) By exploring the oVIrt documentation, seems that the best solution for storage management would be having something like NSF, iSCSI and so on. Unfortunately, LUNs exposed by our MSA1040 are recognised by the two DL36G9 as directly-attached SCSI devices. I asked Google and I found this old post from the far 2013 http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-November/017924.html that seems to be very similar to my case and the scenario is not rosy... :-( Is now, in 2016, something changed? Have you something to suggest?
