Re: [Openstack] Multiple cinder lvm nodes

On a single node using multi-backend you should keep in mind all of your iSCSI traffic going through that node. Usual VG size limits apply of course as well. Some guidelines I've heard from various OpenStack vendors in the past suggest 5TB max on a single cinder-volume/LVM node. From there add m

Read about cinder multi backend support,for using different backend types. I have 2 servers for running as lvm+iscsi back ends. Is it possible to use these 2 lvm backend nodes for same volume type and schedule block drives between these for that volume type. So that volumes will be distributed betw
