+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1051696 +++ Description of problem: On a 3.3 cluster with gluster 3.4 nodes added, an error message is given when a user tries to create a volume with bricks in the root partition. The error message implies that there is a force option which isn't present; from the gui there is no way to create a volume with bricks in the root partition in a 3.3 cluster Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a 3.3 cluster 2. add gluster 3.4 nodes to the cluster 3. create a volume using bricks in the root partition for example /tmp/brick1 Actual results: error message is prompted to user "Error while executing action Create Gluster Volume: Volume create failed error: The brick vm10_lab_eng_blr_redhat_com:/home/test is is being created in the root partition_ It is recommended that you don't use the system's root partition for storage backend_ Or use 'force' at the end of the command if you want to override this behavior_ return code: 115" user is unable to create a volume with bricks in the root partition Expected results: oVirt should allow creation of bricks in the root partition without prompting to be consistent with 3.2 clusters of 2.1 nodes and 3.2 clusters of 2.1u1 nodes.
Re-targeting to 3.3.5 since 3.3.4 has been released
Re-targeting to 3.4.1 since 3.3.5 RC has been released and this is not marked as blocker.
This is an automated message. oVirt 3.4.1 has been released. This issue has been retargeted to 3.4.2 as it has priority high, please retarget if needed. If this is a blocker please add it to the tracker Bug #1095370
This is an automated message: oVirt 3.4.2 has been released. This bug has been re-targeted from 3.4.2 to 3.4.3 since priority or severity were high or urgent.
Since this is a change in gluster behaviour, this behaviour needs to be documented. In 3.3 cluster, passing a force option to vdsm by default is not possible as the older vdsm will not support this option. Marking this bug as CANTFIX
