Thanks for the reply Adam, but I've tried also Raw and it had the exact same error when trying to Power On the machine. Does it make any diference if it's IDE or VirtIO and if cache is None or Writethrough ?

This is unsupported in FUSE with a linux kernel below 3.4. You can use the raw disk format, or use https://github.com/avati/liboindirect to catch opens with O_DIRECT and change them to O_SYNC. -- Adam Tygart On Sat, Jun 23, 2012 at 3:16 PM, Fernando Frediani (Qube) <fernando.frediani at qubenet.net> wrote: > I just built a 2 node(4 bricks), Distributed-Replicated and everything > mounts fine. > > Each node mounts using GlusterFS client on its hostname (mount ?t glusterfs > hostname:VOLUME /virtual-machines) > > When creating a new Virtual Machine using virt-manager it creates the file > on the storage, but when trying to power it On, it doesn?t work and gives > back an error message.(See below.
