Description

When we setup OpenNebula like suggested at http://opennebula.org/documentation:archives:rel3.0:plan - Image Repository & Storage, log files and db files are also shared, which is security breach and in fact useless load on network file systems, because node systems don't need to have access to OpenNebula logs and db, they need only images and deploy scripts.

The problem is that there is no way to setup system to keep logs and db in other directory than $ONE_LOCATION/var. We can set new path only for oneacctd logs and db.

We have modified code and scripts to keep images and deploy them to the directory different from $ONE_LOCATION/var, so we don't share log files and db, but it's crude hack at the present time. So if it is something that is still not done, maybe we can help with it?

Main question is, why it is done this way, is it simply something that is not done yet or there is some hidden sense behind this?
