About security, you're talking about attaching volumes with data out
of tenants concerns. Or some else?
Anyway, we can use the volume group as any other LVM group, and ... :
  - If we use nova-volume labeling pattern, we can use it for future
uses in openstack instances.
  - But If we use our own labeling pattern, then we can use it in
openstack... But can we use lvrename command?? no other setup concerns
to openstack? thats right?
