Until you figure this out, you can use bind mount to bind /var/lib/libvirt/images to a larger local directory. Lines such as this would exist in /etc/fstab;

 /data1/var/lib/libvirt/images   /var/lib/libvirt/images  none bind 0 0

ignore if you are already using this method and need to other method to meet your requirements.

When I add a new KVM host to a cluster it sets up a default Primary storage

dug around trying to find where to change that default but I'm not see where 
it's being configured.

I've tried to change the local_path values in the storage_pool and 
storage_pool_host_ref tables, but I keep getting errors when trying to spin up 
the systemvms.

Is this something that is configured through cloudstack somewhere or something 
I need to change in libvirt when configuring a new KVM host and where/how would 
I change that? The libvirt docs show some XML files that describe how that's 
setup and that /var/lib/libvirt/images/ is the default, but doesn't explain 
where/how to change that.

Thanks,
Travis
