Ah so many information to share and I forgot one more thing:
if I create the VM on Distributed volume and then convert it to template
and clone it to HA volume, things seem to be working fine also.
So there is something wrong during installation process only.


p.s.
I did iperf tests with all of my proxmox hosts - no losses and they are
connected over 1gbps network. Storage network for gluster uses separate
network with 1 gbps cards also.
