Andrea is right,

CloudStack has three logical constructs to define a data center:
-zones
-pods
-clusters

zones are made of pods
pods are made of clusters.

You then define storage backends. Primary storage is a storage common to a 
cluster.

Therefore a pod, could have multiple clusters (including clusters of different 
hypervisors), and associated primary storage for each cluster.

Hope that helps,
