Thank you very much for your reply. Configuring two glusterfs volumes is a 
great solution.
The scheme I tested so far is that three machines do glusterfs, the fourth 
machine only does virt, and four machines are in a cluster.
There is a problem at present, according to the theory, the maximum number of 
downtime can be two, as the ovirt4 node of virt is no problem, and then one of 
ovirt1-3 is down, and the glusterfs volume can no longer be used. Only after 
removing ovirt4 from the gluster cluster (gluster peer detach ovirt4) can the 
volume be used.
May I ask if my plan is ok?
Ovirt4 does not participate in glusterfs

Storage Servers
OVirt + Gluster is called 'Hyperconverged' setup and it supports only replica3 
or a 'replica3 arbiter1' volumes.
Vmware VSAN is another popular Hyperconverged Setup but requires a lot of 
licenses.
The CPU and Disk  resources are plenty on virtualization Hosts and this setup 
allows you to save space by removal of the iSCSI/NFS/SAN dedicated system.
 
The setup is quite popular and it works quite well, but requires a 10G network 
(as load balancing smaller NICs is very hard ) - if performance is required, 
while even a 1 gbit/s NIC is possible to be used.
Note: 1gbit/s will provide no more than 87 MB/s on gluster level for all your 
VMs , which is very poor.
 
If you have 4 hosts -> one of them will not be in the gluster setup, or you 
will have 2 separate gluster volumes like this:
oVirt1- Replica for volume A
oVirt2- Replica for volume A , arbiter for volume B
oVirt3 - Replica for volume B,arbiter for volume A
oVirt4 - Replica for volume B
 
Then you add them as hosts in your oVirt setup.
 
Best Regards,
