virt-manager does not want to ever run any qemu tools directly. This requires adding support for a gluster based storage pool in libvirt first. Well there's domain <disk> support for gluster volumes, right? I figured that's what the initial IRC query was about. But yes if you want virt-install to create a new volume and not just use an existing one, it will require libvirt patches as well. Also, we should at least make sure virt-manager UI doesn't blow up or look awful when it sees a network disk *** Bug 531420 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Another bit, from the duped bug, is allowing HTTP cdrom installs. I don't think we should add an explicit new mode for it, but maybe we can make virt-install/virt-manager 'just work' if passed an HTTP iso path as CDROM media. Something to explicitly test at least. Upstream virt-install supports: --disk $URL for gluster, http, etc. It should 'just work'. It also allows explicit building like: --disk source_protocol=gluster,source_name=...,... |
