StorPool

Since VirtFusion v4.0, StorPool distributed storage is supported.

Important

There are a few limitations you should be aware of.

  • Offline migrations are not supported (Live migration is fully supported. Even with a mix of local and remote disks).
  • Backups will be disabled for remote disks.
  • Disaster Recovery will also ignore remote disks. Only the local configurations and assets will be stored.
