[hitesh ingole <hi...@gmail.com>]

Hello Team,

I am trying to set up a cloud stack env with kvm hypervisor on an HP
blade servers. This blade servers has a lun storage mounted using a
multipath.

I need to configure this device as a primary storage.
Which protocol and provider should I use ?

Regards

Hello Hitesh,

In KVM you can use shared mount point if you have LUN mounted from backend on each server, so for creating a shared mount point ( if you have multiple KVM hosts), you will need to implement a solution like PCS cluster ( pacemaker, corosync ). If you can use  NFS then it’s better for KVM otherwise PCS cluster, it’s a bit hard to manage in long term and required dedicated skilled  man power to manage it.
