Hi all,
please find attached the notes of this XenSummit Bof Session. I
forgot to take a picture of the whiteboard diagram at the BoF (maybe
one of the RedHat folks can attach a picture). Maybe a bit more
detail on this thread, may enable somebody in the community to pick
this up.
Regards
Lars
Purpose of session:
* Walk through GlusterFS / Libgfapi and block device integration
to understand what would need to be done to integrate GlusterFS
into Xen
Key points:
* Work is probably in the order of a week or two (it looks like it's a week of
setting up the
development and testing environment and one afternoon of actual
development)
* The integration with Xen would be more
about qdisk than
libvirt
* It is not an intensive
development effort but might need some co-ordination across teams
to get the
setup going and run integration tests.
How do we make this happen?
* No plans on any side, but Vijay is will add it to his backlog
* Hit both community lists to see if we
can
get someone interested (done of Xen, maybe more
technical detail to enable this is needed)
* We could also add "support for more qemu-supported virtual
filesystems" as an OPW or GSoC project -could include gluster,
ceph, etc. (we missed this for this round)
* Include XenServer community (added)
