Hello ---

I am working through setting up a test environment for OpenNebula , and most of 
it has been exceptionally straight-forward and simple. However, working through 
the datastore assignment has been a bit tricky, because the documentation reads 
as if all the SAN has to be assigned to specific nodes within the 
configuration, and it is shared to all nodes.

I am using vmware esxi 5.1 for testing and we have a rather robust VMware 
environment already, and are looking to leverage OpenNebula to improve our 
ability to stand up new VMs with less user interaction and speeding up the 
process with the tasks that OpenNebula can easily help automate and improve

My test environment has the following


1)      OpenNebula VM for management

2)      2 ESXi 5.1 hosts

3)      3 Datastores shared to both nodes as iSCSI attached devices

Treating the env. as SAN disks, I don't need a datastore on the OpenNebula VM? 
I just need to share a volume of some sorts on the ESXi hosts? Im not getting 
this clearly

And it also reads like my SAN disks should be specifically assigned to each 
ESXi hosts - our production env. has 100's of SAN disks and they are shared to 
all ESXi hosts - that seems  a bit strange

Could someone help me understand what I am missing here so I can complete the 
build of my test env.?
