Is there any way easy way to make this setting dependent on the storage definition? For example some primary storage may need this set to one value such as cache=writeback such as with the case of ZFS, GlusterFS, CEPH. Then other storage may want a different setting such as cache=writethough or none which is the case with a local ext4 storage or NFS.
