<div dir="ltr">Hi,<div><br></div><div>well, I agree with this. Now that there's an upcoming gluster support in libvirt, and with qemu's integration with libgsapi for qemu-img create, integrating it for OpenNebula makes a lot of sense.</div>
<div><br></div><div>In particular we could do the same thing we've done for the CEPH integration, create a new TYPE = "GLUSTER" image type, and generate specific domain files for that type (using the new 'source protocol="gluster"'), like we did in this commit:</div>

The other option is creating a driver for ovirt and letting ovirt handle the qemu interface, its significant work in either case.</div>

This is already being done or already done in newer versions of libvirt,<br>
see KVM forum 2012 for latest on glusterfs and libvirt<br>

Sure, that is being done and mostly functional - I've seen the demo's too. The task here, however, is getting this backported in a sane way to still work with the rest of the distro tooling.<br>
<br>
btw, mailing list : try not topposting. As you can see now this conversation is fragmented!<br>

Maybe with the creation of a new driver or something else?<br>
<br>
<br>
I've been tracking that glusterfs feature for a while now, and would<br>
be interested to see someone take up the task to evaluate the depth<br>
of changes needed to make this work on CentOS-6.<br>
<br>
The qemu stack and the libvirt stack are going to need an update,<br>
and they both have a fairly long dep tree - so the implications need<br>
to be evaluated a bit.<br>
