We also plan to have HA for a class of our vm whereas others should not be replicated. What kind of mapping between Cloudstack and Vmware organisation units, and Nutnaix Protections domains strategies should we have to achieve this goal.
If none of the above is supported is Apache Cloudstack in Nutanix roadmap on Vmware or AHV ?
Thank you in advance

Nutanix would simply be a resource unit to CloudStack, via vCenter, so CloudStack would see a vSphere cluster with hosts and datastores, and provision VM's like it currently does.
To leverage per-VM replication (or per app replication) using Protection Domains in Nutanix, you'd need to have some script or custom call from CloudStack to the Nutanix clusters to set that up.
There is possibility to configure replication at an entire datastore layer via ncli vstore protect, so you could provision VM's as replicated and non-Replicated on a per-datastore layer. That would be similar to what you'd do on a traditional storage array.
