Hi Pavel,

thanks. This happens to be a prefect way to add a storage domain with all
the available paths; but unfortunately, I wanted to add the missing paths
for the hosted storage data domain, the data domain hosting the self-hosted
engine vm; and I'm not sure how to "change" the configs for hosted-storage
domain without the GUI provided by the engine itself.

Kind regards,
Francesco
