The StorPool storage plug-in for CloudStack described here is part of
1434+
the standard installation for CloudStack versions 4.17.0.0 and newer.

In case you use a version before 4.17.0.0, you should install the
1438+
StorPool plug-in provided in the `StorPool CloudStack
1439+
<https://github.com/storpool/storpool-cloudstack-integration/>`_
1440+
repository.

When used with service or disk offerings, an administrator is able to
14401448
build an environment in which a root or data disk that a user creates
14411449
leads to the dynamic creation of a StorPool volume, which has guaranteed
14421450
performance. Such a StorPool volume is associated with one CloudStack volume,
14431451
so performance of the CloudStack volume does not vary depending on how
14441452
heavily other tenants are using the system. The volume migration is supported
1445-
across non-managed storage pools (e.g. NFS/Local storage/Ceph) to StorPool, and
1446-
across StorPool storage pools.
