Unfortunatly I have already gone through these documents, several times as well, but these are only about the creation of storage pools, not how you attach them to the guest. Do I attach a storage pool as a disk. Like: -drive pool="pool-name", and if so, how do I do with index numbering, since the pool can hold several LUN's? Perhaps the code takes care of the indexing, since the LU's got numbers...? Or do I have to attach every LU in the pool individually? With their own index number?
