[Ildiko] This reads a little confusing to me. What does it mean that stx-openstack should not be supported on central clouds? Does that mean that the central cloud is not expected to run workloads?

As OpenStack is a cloud platform that powers large data centers, I can see how it might not be implemented to run in sub-clouds, but rather in the central data center.

+1 for more targeted testing in this area.

Do you mean the central cloud or the sub-cloud deployment?
