<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Hi,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've setup OpenNebula 3.4 together with 5 KVM hosts.</div>
<div>Those 6 hosts are member of a clustered LVM. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The OpenNebula host holds the „Master“ image in form of a logical volume "/dev/vg1/master".</div>
<div>Every KVM host synchronizes with this image and therefore has a local copy of this image represented by its own "/dev/vg1/master" volume.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Now I'd like OpenNebula to deploy a virtual machine by creating a new logical volume as LVM snapshot from /dev/vg1/master - manually it'll look like this on the KVM host:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div># lvcreate -n vm01 -L40G -s /dev/vg1/master </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>When the virtual machine is removed, I just need a:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div># lvremove -f /dev/vg1/vm01 </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I've read in the change logs of OpenNebula 3.2 that the tm_lvm driver was removed and superseded by the iSCSI driver.</div>
<div>I'm clueless… iSCSI simply is not LVM…</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My next step would be to create a custom transfer manage to realize the steps I need.</div>
<div>But… do I really need to do this? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Help from someone who's running the same setup is greatly appreciated :-)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks so far,</div>
<div><br>
