Description

The VMs should be able to talk to the storage network, it's mandatory so that we can host the Ceph monitors in the hypervisors and to export NFS volumes using the storage network and not the frontend one.

The test made on dlib18x went bad, so a full reboot of every hypervisor is needed to permit the VMs to talk to the private network.

After reading the documentation again, in particular http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/rados/configuration/network-config-ref/ (first paragraph) it seems that my plan to split the cluster network in two can be avoided without a significant loss of performance. As it simplifies the overall configuration of hypervisors, VMs and ceph, I'm going with a two networks configuration.
The interfaces that are part of the third network will be reallocated if they are not useful for OpenStack (possibly yes).

So, this configuration is not necessary anymore.
