In fact, GFS setups are not supported under RHEV at all... The only component used by RHEV that is borrowed from the cluster suite is the fence scripts (check it out). The entire clustering model under RHEV is completely different - it is storage based and not network based. Further more, it is much more scalable, it was tested for many of tenths of physical nodes.

Remember only English Local is support by RHEV-M at the moment as per RHEV-M Manual: ======================================================= Note Only the English locale is supported when installing the RHEV Manager on Windows Server 2003. ======================================================= Do you have Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 installed? Do you have Windows Power Shell 1.0 installed? Well, sorry but these would be my best guess. I hope they help you out Enjoy, Eiad Hi Andrew,

Are you using English local or do u have any other local on the machine you are installing the RHEV-M on. Remember only English Local is support by RHEV-M at the moment as per RHEV-M Manual:

=======================================================
Note
Only the English locale is supported when installing the RHEV Manager on Windows
Server 2003.

Do you have Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 installed?

Do you have Windows Power Shell 1.0 installed?

Well, sorry but these would be my best guess. I hope they help you out

Enjoy,

Meanwhile I have installed Rhel5.4_x86_64 in my host side. Any kind of help will be most welcome Thanks in advance Hi,

I can see that a RHEV cluster that enable live migration and load sharing is easy to create as in the article you are pointing, but to achieve high availability in RHEV you will require to setup GFS & Red Had Cluster Suite which is where I have stated it will require a Red Hat Expert to setup. I have seen no video or document yet that claim RHEV-M will setup GFS or Red Had Cluster Suite for you, but all mention that you will have to set them up manually then integrate them with your RHEV solution to obtain high availability. If you have any different instruction on doing so, please leave a link to it in the comment. Thanks. Eiad Hi Artur,

RHEV and RHEL are two different products. If you only had RHEL and you wanted High availability, clustering etc, the you need RHCS and GFS. If you install RHEV then it manages it's own storage and clustering without GFS or RHCS. I do disagree, and having installed both RHEV and RHEL I’m sure ….

In order for you to have a high availability setup for your Virtual Machines in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Solution you will need to build Red Hat Cluster & GFS. Don't take my word for it & check out the second video by Red Hat on the following post http://www.virtualization.info/2009/09/red-hat-releases-enterprise-linux-54.html If you still disagree with me, I am open to hear your doubts.
