Storage options for new Cloudstack setup.
Greetings All,
We are looking into setting up Cloudstack for one of our new racks and I am
trying to get a picture of our options for storage;
1. Can we use primary storage with the specs below? It seems primary
storage is meant for single, dedicated storage boxes (SAN, NFS) that don't
house VM's as well (which is our goal).
3x Dual E5-2620, 256 GB RAM, 10x512 GB SSD (2x10gbps) (Hosts)
1x E5-2620, 64 GB RAM, 5x512 GB SSD (1gbps) (Possibly management server)
1x Dual E5-2620, 64 GB RAM, 8x1 TB SATA3 (1gbps) (possibly backup/secondary
storage server)
2. If so, how/what do we need to do to set this up?
Thanks for your help!

No, each host would add their storage. What David is saying, you shouldn't
create the host presenting the 10 SSDs seperately, you'll want to create a
RAID group and present that through Xenserver, then CloudStack will pick it
up as the SR.

Just to clarify...
We are just starting to get a CS 4.1.1 install up and working. We have our management server and two XenServer 6.1 hosts.
If we create local storage SR's for each XenServer CloudStack will only recognize one of those local storage pools? We can't add the second storage pool and CloudStack will use the correct local storage for the host it's spinning a VM up on?
Thanks,
Travis

One thing to be aware of with the local storage, is that CS will only recognize one local storage pool. So where you have 10 x 512 GB disks, you will need to make all of the disks you would like to use for CS primary storage one logical disk.

The hosts would be in a cluster, but their storage is local to the host.
I'm not aware of anything in cloudstack yet (storage migration is slated
for future versions) that would make it aware of replication done on the
host level. People are experimenting with Ceph for primary storage, but I
don't know all the details on what is/isn't possible with that.

Hello Kirk,
While I do agree with the Live migration issue I do think If you have
multiple hosts couldnt you replicate the data and establish HA via load
balancing. Am I correct in thinking this? Would these specs be considered
one 'pod' or a single 'cluster'?
Thanks again for you help.

I'd wait for the experts to reply, but off the top of my head in the
current versions (4.x), you'd lose the ability to live migrate instances
and offer HA service offerings.

With the specs provided, you'll want to create a zone with local storage
enabled (as well as change the global setting that allows system vms to be
placed on primary storage). That way, when you add hosts, their local disks
will be added as primary storage.
