That might not be supportable with the current code. It's possible to
have a nested cluster with VMs, but containers probably share too much
of the host environment. There was an issue not that long ago with
libqb that led to a new libqb option to use filesystem sockets instead
of Linux native sockets, that might help, but I wouldn't be surprised
if there are more issues.

One problem with nested clusters is fencing; it's difficult to get
fencing working reliably in both clusters.

If the reason for the separation is policy, then VMs may be the only
way. Otherwise, if you just want to control resources inside the
containers, then the new bundles feature or the Pacemaker Remote
feature would be the best way to handle it.
