If there is a storage node failure, RHEV will use the remaining Gluster node and Gluster will automatically heal as part of the recovery process. It's possible a VM will be paused if its VM disk image changed while one of the storage nodes was down. Run ''gluster volume heal ssdstorage info'' to see heal status. | If there is a storage node failure, RHEV will use the remaining Gluster node and Gluster will automatically heal as part of the recovery process.
