    raw is to slow to backup. qcow2 vs vmdk? other ideas?

    I have a VM that I'm configuring as a email server (ubuntu 12.10) 1TB . I initially configured this as raw. But then I realized when baking up it takes a long, long time to shared storage. So this is an issue for me. I know I could use a smaller disk, then re-size it, but not sure I want to go...

    Advice on HA setup?

    Thanks Tom. I'm trying to get 2 nodes up, a quorum disk, and fencing to work. Then add another Node before using the HA feature on a VM. Do you think there is any issue with that? For fencing, I just want to make sure I can use the baseboard management console in the dell servers for fencing...

    storage type lvm does not support format vmdk? Why?

    I am curious why this is so : "storage type lvm does not support format vmdk" ? I am using iscsi on shared storage device. I know it is a limitation and vms need to be stored as raw, but why is this?

    quorum disk on shared storage 2 nodes, plus 1 future

    Question I have. I know in a 2 node config, if one node goes down and you start a vm you get a quorum error and you cant start the VM/s. I'm pretty sure this is because you need 3 nodes for (voting I think?) redundancy. The issue I have is I have 2 servers and a shared storage server. 1. Is...
