Yeah, I'd thought of doing it that way, however it would be nice to avoid that if possible since the machines in the cluster will be running under QEMU using librbd, so it'd be additional overhead having to re-export the drives using iSCSI.

Hello,
So, if your cluster nodes are running virtualized with Qemu/KVM, you can present them a virtual SCSI drive, from the same RBD image.
It will be like a shared FC SCSI SAN LUN.

RBD can be re-published via iSCSI using a gateway host to sit in between, for example using targetcli.

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has had any experience in attempting to use
a RBD volume as a clustered drive in Windows Failover Clustering? I'm
getting the impression that it won't work since it needs to be either
an iSCSI LUN or a SCSI LUN.

Thanks,
Damien
