All storage in a data center must be of one type only. For example, if iSCSI is selected as the type, only iSCSI data domains can be attached to the data center. " So if he would like to put iSCSI and SAN LUNS on the same DC, he can't at the moment. If I remember correctly in another past thread it was said (Itamar perhaps?) that there wasn't a particular restriction or design constraint about this limitation, but probably only historical reason.... is this true? So it could be cool to put on the roadmap the chance to mix several SD types in the same DC. BTW: Jakub which is the kind of replication / network raid 1 you are using or planning, perhaps drbd or similar? Gianluca
