Xenserver and vmware doesn't support zone wide primary storage, currently, this feature is only for NFS/Ceph in KVM. And I think it should be useful for your storage box? I am thinking per data volume per LUN for xenserver.

I'm wondering how Zone-wide Primary Storage works for iSCSI. For example, in 4.1 when you create a Primary Storage based on iSCSI and specify, say, a XenServer Cluster, CloudStack creates a Shared Storage Repository for that Cluster based on the iSCSI target. How will this work with Zone-wide iSCSI-based Primary Storage? If you have, say, two XenServer Clusters, which one will CloudStack create the Shared Storage Repository on? What if one Cluster is VMware and another is XenServer, etc.?
