We use glusterfs with open nebula on two kvm nodes with mirroring with 6 bricks per node. We recommend gluster 3.3 with a back end network connection, 10GbE or IB. For stress testing the file system you can use dbench on a cluster of VMs. Gluster 3.2 wasn't very robust to node failure but 3.3 is fa

Well in your defense, brcompat isn't the solution to using openvswitch to it's full potential anyways. I think it's better to create the wrapper scripts to call ovsctl directly or whatever it's called now. On Fri, Sep 14, 2012 at 10:09 AM, christopher barry wrote: > On Thu, 2012-09-13 at 17:05 -0

libvirt supports lxc so you can create a driver for lxc through opennebula's framework, I don't think it would be that difficult to get the basic functionality working. On Sat, Sep 1, 2012 at 11:03 AM, cmcc.dylan wrote: > My company want to use lxc as hypervisor. does opennebula has plans to > s
