Hello, I have created a shared storage with lvm over iscsi, for a cluster. How it works, can I upload iso images to that shared storage? Or is it just used for migrating virtual machines? If you want to upload an image, the option to load iso is disabled.
 
you can only upload an iso to a file based storage (so directory, nfs, etc.)
 
In other words, lvm over iscsi is not used to upload images????

Yes. LVM (over iSCSI or local) only allows raw VM disk images and container volumes. Templates, ISO images and backup archives all require a directory to store files.
