Hi Team,

I have clarification on storage provisioning to KVM.

I have installed RHEL OS 6.5 on the bare metal and trying to provision storage to this linux host. So provisioning storage to this linux host will automatically detect by KVM and make use of that disk.

Could you please confirm and assist on storage provisioning to KVM.

Thanks, Sheik Davood K

KVM / VLAN / Bonding / Bridging

Hi I would like to know the best setup up if I have a 3 VLANs will be used over two physical links enp2s0 , enp3s0 trunked server by default has 2 NICs (note server capable of creating vNICs as well) so in this case we have vNIC represented to OS


so I will have VLAN 100 for managment Host bare metal RHEL 7.0


on top of the host will install KVM to deploy 2 VMs

VM1 : using VLAN 200 and - one interface - one IP address VM2 : using VLAN 200, VLAN300 and two interfaces two IP addresses

- How many bond should I use ... I assume one ? (enp2s0 , enp3s0) ?

 Do I need to create all the VLANs over that bond ? 
 what is the proper pinning VLANs 

- How many bridge should be created ?

I am looking at how this can be implemented for routing and networking ?

Thanks in advance
