Sure :), but how ? since there is no UI support yet.
Is there a way I can use the vdsm cli to drive, any ovirt wiki page
that helps provide insight on how to use vdsm cli ?
and tweak it to use SHAREDFS_DOMAIN instead of LOCALFS_DOMAIN
You'd have to do some digging into vdsm/storage/storage_connection.py
for the right params to connectStorageServer.
