When developing the code I didn't expect someone having more than two Data Centers :-) As a workaround, if you want to exclude the Storage Domains of an entire Data Center, you can exclude them explicitly using the "NOBALANCE" parameter of the config file, which does allow several values.

If you consider this is something that should be implemented, feel free to fill an issue or extend the code and send a Pull Request.
