Attaching local logical volume is not supported. > Any pointers how this can be done? The oVirt way is to create a block storage domain, and create a raw preallocated disk. This will attach a logical volume to the VM. The difference is that the logical volume is served by iSCSI or FC storage server, and you can migrate the VM between hosts. If you really want to use local host storage, the best way is to create a local DC that will include only this host, and use raw preallocated file on the local storage domain. The performance of LVM or XFS on LVM is almost the same, and some operations like fallallocate(PUCH_HOLE) can be 100 times faster on XFS.
