yes, could be the solution. I think openstack/xenserver already doing this.

The vm disks also need to be unique. (they use vmid, so if vmid is unique it's ok)

I guess we need more. For example, we can exactly identify 
a VM/CT/Storage/Network by prefixing it with the cluster name: 

cluster1/vm/100 
cluster2/ct/100 
cluster1/storage/local 
cluster2/network/vmbr 

But we need a way to tell if resources are considered 
to be equal (cluster wide). 

An easy way to to do that would be to assign UUIDs to VMs, CTs, 
storages and networks?
