Hi all

I'm wondering if theres a way to share a disk between nodes to store common things like software , log, etc... I'm wondering if its something i need to add to the qemu custom options and reference a disk ive created somewhere else.

Impossible in any virtual environment, eve also
But I guess you dont know what is commit image with diferent names
so you can save images with any config, and save
like winactdir
win-dns
etc
it is given in the eve cookbooks how to commit and save

Thanks. It’s more to share common files between nodes that are persistent and don’t revert to there last state when reset or a new node is create.

Things like have installers, notes etc…

If sharing a hard disk is not possible is their a way to exploit the SMB feature built into qemu.

Forgive me if these are stupid questions I’m new to kvm/qemu
