Description of problem:
Running RHOSP9 , multi-backend ceph, eqlx, compellent:
On clusters using multi-backend storage, Ceph should be the default volume storage as it was in OSP8. In OSP9, EQXL is the default volume backend.
If you do a “cinder create myvolume”, it automatically creates an eqlx volume. In OSP8, Ceph was the default.
There is a param in cinder.conf that specifies a default volume type, but it is commented out.
Default volume type to use (string value)
#default_volume_type = <None>
If there is a way to specify this in the yaml heat templates, please let us know

Additional info:
When multiple backends are enabled cinder will use the one with the most available free space, there isn't a "default" unless operators excplicitly create volume_types and ser a default volume_type.
