> At the time being, if an admin wants to add primary storage to CloudStack that is NOT based on the default storage plug-in, the admin must invoke the addStoragePool API outside of the CloudStack GUI.
> It would be beneficial to CloudStack admins if they could add this kind of primary storage to CloudStack via its standard GUI.
> This project will require a degree of usability work in that the designer must analyze CloudStack's GUI sufficiently to come up with a plan for where the necessary information can be input.
> Once a GUI prototype has been developed (one could use a tool like PowerPoint for this purpose), then the developer must analyze the necessary HTML and JavaScript logic to add the proposed support.
> This project could take the form of an optional GUI plug-in.
> It is possible this project may add one or more parameters to the addStoragePool API. If so, then this will require Java changes on the backend.
> It is likely the developer will have to create a new CloudStack API: One to retrieve the list of installed storage plug-ins.
