Change Default Primary Storage from NFS to Local
Hi Guys
Just a quick one. I configured my setup initially to use NFS for primary
storage. This all worked well until we noticed that NFS storage wasn't
going to last us long because we didn't have a cluster storage setup or
SAN configured. So, we have since stopped our VM machines and migrated
their storage volumes from the NFS to local, which we are happy with to
continue with. I have about two VMs still using the NFS primary, the
rest are on local.
Now, when I create a new VM instance, it still deploys to NFS storage, I
want it to automatically deploy to the local storage of the KVM when its
created. How do I accomplish this? Because now, after deploying the new
VM I must stop it again and then migrate it each time, which isn't
really nice to do.

Hi
It seems selecting "Override root disk offering" when creating a new VM
solves the issue.

Re: Change Default Primary Storage from NFS to Local

Hi
I created one now, also had to enable local storage option for my zone.
I deployed a new VM now, but from an existing template. It seems the
template still creates the main volume in NFS, but the new disk offering
I assigned, created a data disk but on local storage. I reckon this
means I need to deploy a new template one that uses this new service
offering, yes?

Did you create new service offerings with storage type = local?
