In this case, in order to create this clustered environment, it will be nice if you create a template with the regular disks, create a pool from it, and attach all the VMs in the pool the shared DB disks. (It would be even nicer if the shared disk will be a part of the template, and when creating VMs from it they will have have a "link" to this shared disk - but I agree that it may be complex so maybe we should leave it aside for now). Thoughts?
