[Openstack] Architectural question

Dan,

If I understand your question properly, you can do this from the Horizon
management web interface as an admin user. Under Admin->System Panel->Host
Aggregates setup 3 aggregates each in their own availability zone, and then
assign each host into a corresponding aggregate.

I don't think the controller node needs any special configuration, and the
compute nodes should just need the configuration to use the specific
hypervisor you want on that host.  Each compute node must be running before
it can be added to the host aggregate through the UI.
