    Yes, thats great. If the "Yes" or "No" per Volume is a problem, then I'm think per pool is ok, too.
    If, we can make the rebalance-definition per volume, then is good, if this defininition we can put in the feaults. And, if I'want make a change on a volume, that I can selcent a lot of volumes in the same time and put the balancingparameter to yes by all volumes.
