Yup, i need SheepdogISCSIDriver. >There is no such driver, but it's possible to implement. But why Sheepdog driver was not implemented by SheepdogISCSIDriver way but by the QEMU/Libvirt way? Could you please tell me the differences between these two ways? From the page http://wiki.openstack.org/SheepdogSupport , i find the Rationale like following. "Current implementation of volumes (iSCSI/AoE with LVM) is not fit for IaaS. 1, the architecture is not scalable in capacity and performance 2, LVM machine could become a SPOF 3, If we take many LVM snapshots, the performance of volumes becomes terrible". If the Rationale is the SheepdogISCSIDriver's disadvantages? Or SheepdogISCSIDriver has some other disadvantages so that we use QEMU/Libvirt way instead? -- Thanks Harry Wei |
