Good afternoon Armando,

Thanks a lot for you're answer. 

Yes basically I want to setup a virtual housing service in the way you can 
create a machine in sas or sata storage for example. If each nova-compute 
should point to just one sr (storage kind) of xcp it would be one or the other 
one (in this example... sas or sata)... Ok then. So you mean the right way of 
doing this with Openstack is to basically have different nova-computes pointing 
to different sr and sharing the other properties... Have I understand properly??


In the last two paragraph I assume you're just talking about load balancing... 
Isn't it?? 

Very thankful for you're time.
Regards,
