As now qemu has direct support for glusterfs (a distributed filesystem) and glusterfs daemon[1] should run on any Unix-like OS you can have OpenBSD-based cloud too :D For glusterfs is that you won't be able to mount it on OpenBSD as other posix filesystem as there's neither support nor FUSE-like workaround. You can of course try to "port" KVM to OpenBSD, hehe. jirib [1] http://community.gluster.org/q/does-glusterfs-support-freebsd/
