XOSANv2 Trial in XOCE?

cyrus104

I run a small homelab with 3 hosts, I'm using XOCE right now which has been working great. I've been using NFS for all VM storage and would like to test the XOSANv2 with 50GB but would like to stick with XOCE.

Is this possible?

Hi,

Short answer: no.
Long answer: take a look at XOSTOR, this will replace XOSAN. https://xcp-ng.org/forum/topic/5361/xostor-hyperconvergence-preview

I'll look into this, are there plans for this to be integrated XO for a seamless experience? If so what is the timeline?

Thanks a bunch.

UI mgmt: yes, but that will be likely linked to XOA users, not sources. Every feature will stay usable on the CLI for others.
Timeline: hard to tell, but we'd like to finish the beta in the next months.

Ok, I'll look into it some more. Right now, I'm just looking for XOCE to be hosted in the XOSTOR to avoid any issues with an NFS in my homelab going down.

I have a spare M.2 NVME in each host that I can use, I'm pretty sure that my XOCE isn't very big.
