Hello,
I have a few hosts that will be openvz hosts soon.

I would like to setup a dedicated storage box for the openvz containers. What is the best setup for this?

Does NFS work well for storing the containers?

What about iSCSI with GFS?

Any recommendations or warnings? Smile

Thanks.

I believe anything will work, but only ext3 will support quotas. I recommend creating an iSCSI LUN for each host node and formatting as ext3, grow as needed.

Thanks. Can I ask how that works with migration?
