Wido,
This is a great idea!
Can you do us all a favor (well, David and whomever is going to help
him on Wiki migrations) and put this in the ASF wiki instead? -

I moved it there last week.
As this feature won't make it into 4.0 I'll put my resources on other
more pressing matters first.
I'll see if I can get this ready for 4.1

As for other HVs, I think that VMware shouldn't be a problem for those
stats. It might depend on the version, but I believe they are
available. You can at least get IOPS out of it.

Hi,
I've been thinking about this for a couple of months while working on RBD.
In public clouds it's very important to know which user is (ab)using your
storage, so I figured it could be useful if CloudStack would also support
disk I/O polling.
On the Wiki I started with a document about this:
http://wiki.cloudstack.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=11830451
I only have experience with KVM, so I'm not sure if and how other
Hypervisors support this.
For KVM it seems the implementation is rather simple, but I rather not make
this a KVM-only feature.
The first steps will be to lay the groundwork in CloudStack and the polling
for disk IOps and then implement it per Hypervisor.
I'd like some input on other Hypervisors to get a better picture of what has
to be done.
Comments and flames are welcome :)
Wido
