Enable mirroring on a managed disk level

An extension is requested, such that we could enable mirroring on a managed disk level. This would allow an administrator to select that two managed disks should be mirrored, resulting in a new mirrored managed disk object to be included in a given storage pool. This provides additional flexibility to the administrator, who can specify that a managed disk from a specific controller should be mirrored with another controller for additional redundancy, without having to mirror the entire storage pool that the disk is included in.

    We like your ideas and thinking on this one, but it's not something we see as making one of our release priorities in the next couple of years. You can re-open this after that period of time if you still find it a key need.
