I don't think there is such a plan, but it makes sense to support
such usage.
Please file ovit-engine RFE explaining the use case, and we can consider

I also wote for this feature. There is also this RFE which could allow
similar functionality (allow use of local disk storages in shared

Thanks again for the help!
