Bug Description
The actual eucalyptus implementation only supports aoe or iscsi as storage technology. For wider adoption it would be usefull to be able to store the volumes in a clusterwide accessible mountpoint on nas or similar.
I propose to create a new implementation of LVM2Manager which actually calls qemu-img on the storage controller to create a volume as file on a NAS.
A first implementation is available at: https:/
I will further improve this branch to make the kind of StorageManager Implementation configurable.

I have troubles to figure out how the configuration entries in /etc/eucalyptus .conf where made available to the storage controller. I would propose to add a configuration entry there called STORAGE_TYPE with aoe,iscsi, qemu:qcow2 or qemu:raw etc as possible values. After that it would be nice to have this value accessible via:
com.eucalyptus. util.StoragePro perties. storageType
But i cant figure out how for example util.StoragePro perties. storageRootDire ctory
com.eucalyptus.
get filled.
any hints welcome.
