Open Stack

Hi Ton.

I think we should. Also in cases where multiple volume types are available
(in our case with different iops) there would be additional parameters
required to select the volume type. I'll add it this week.

It's a detail though, spawning container clusters with Magnum is now super
easy (and fast!).

Cheers,
  Ricardo
