Perfect. You'll have a domain def ( the VM), a disk def, and the attach the
disk def to the vm. You may need to do your own StorageAdaptor and run
iscsiadm commands to accomplish that, depending on how the libvirt iscsi
works. My impression is that a 1:1:1 pool/lun/volume isn't how it works on
xen at the momen., nor is it ideal.
Your plugin will handle acls as far as which host can see which luns as
well, I remember discussing that months ago, so that a disk won't be
connected until the hypervisor has exclusive access, so it will be safe and
fence the disk from rogue nodes that cloudstack loses connectivity with. It
should revoke access to everything but the target host... Except for during
migration but we can discuss that later, there's a migration prep process
where the new host can be added to the acls, and the old host can be
removed post migration.
