Well, some of my clients want colocation, some don't.  Some of them want
offsites, some don't.  Some of them want to control their own e.g. maxscratch
(as a proxy for how much space they're using), some don't.

The offsites question is probably the most sticky to accomplish.  Until and
unless you can

BACK STG PRIMARY COPY node=foobar

then there's no real way to do the separation I'd desire with everyone in one
big stgpool.

Even then, you've got a management headache of keeping track of which nodes'
data should be backed up to which copy pools.

_I_'ve got the headache of which domain should be backed up where, but I don't
have so many of those.



Fred, how would you offsite one domain's data?
