I'd say your assumption is correct. The "handle" to create actual
resources in LINSTOR then is the resource group/volume group (LINSTOR
rg/vg, not to confuse with LVM). And LINSTOR RGs can have multiple
LINSTOR storage pools. So you always use the same LINSTOR RG, it will
choose one of the SPs and as there is a 1:1 mapping down to 1 physical
disk your failure domain for that resource is that single disk.
