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.
