I have the same issue and haven't been able to find a solution. It seems that 
the initial LUN is hard coded into /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/hosted-engine.conf 
and there's no way to add additional paths to it.

Hi Pavel,



thanks. This happens to be a prefect way to add a storage domain with all the 
available paths; but unfortunately, I wanted to add the missing paths for the 
hosted storage data domain, the data domain hosting the self-hosted engine vm; 
and I'm not sure how to "change" the configs for hosted-storage domain without 
the GUI provided by the engine itself.



Kind regards,

Francesco

Good day Francesco,

If I understand you correctly you can try the following via GUI:



1) Go to "Storage" menu.

2) Go to "Domain" menu.

3) Press "New Domain" button. The "New Domain" window will open.

4) Choose "iSCSI" from the "Storage Type" dropdown list.

5) At the "Discover Targets" section:

    5a) For each path:

        5a1) Enter path at the "Address"  field.

        5a2) Press "Discover" button.

    5b) Press "Login All" button.



Hope it helps.

Dear ones,



I beg your pardon for coming back on the same issue: let me rephrase more 
succinctly.



A view from the REST API about our data domain is:

 Is there a way to add to the "hosted_storage" all the available path on 
different iSCSI portals and different iSCSI targets, as I did for the 
"ovirt-data" storage domain?



Thank you very much for your suggestions.

Dear sirs,



we're trying to install an SHE oVirt 4.3.6 using an iSCSI SAN that provides us 
multiple targets (8) over 4 different portals. Following 5.1 of "RHV 
installation using Cockpit" we set up iscsi and multipath ahead with a 90GB LUN 
to be used for the engine VM. Unfortunately, even if the node OS sees correctly 
the LUN, e.g.:

during the engine deploy neither via cockpit nor with "hosted-engine --deploy" 
it was able to see any LUN.



Having a lot of portals (4) and each having 4 targets (two of which being 
independents path to the LUN), we chose a portal to discover, it proposed us 4 
targets, and we had to choose a target to log in, but in the end, no LUN was 
proposed.



After a few attempts, we found that, if we logged out from any targets (and 
clean up the open-iscsi database), after the login in an appropriate target, 
the installer proposed us the LUN, and we successfully deployed the SHE.



But unfortunately, such an installation doesn't track effectively all the 8 
paths over 8 different targets, but just the one chosen during the installation 
(this is different, for example, with respect to other LUNs for data domains 
that we attached afterwards). Thus we miss the HA we aimed to for the engine 
data domain.



I said this, because when I ask for /ovirt-engine/api/storagedomains, whilst a 
second LUN has 8 children with different targets below storage_domain/${another 
data domain}/storage/volume_group/logical_units/logical_unit/, for the 
hosted_storage I just have one.



My questions are:



a) is there a way to add the other targets/paths consistently (even through the 
REST interface)?

b) is there another installation, or recovery, procedure to get the engine data 
domain in high availability on our iSCSI topology?



Thank you so much for your suggestions, they are really appreciated,



Best regards,

Francesco Castellano
