Adding volume ML to cc.



As John pointed before, it might be beneficial if we will meet over
IRC/phone and discuss our requirements for the product. Based on that we
could create some work plan and assign priorities.

How about this coming Thursday… or is it too early? The alternative option –
to do it over email...



Regards,

-Vladimir

All,
It seems that we all have some thoughts/desires surrounding block storage
and ways to integrate with OpenStack.  I'm wondering if it would be of
value/interest to conduct a meeting (IRC, phone, ???)?  I'm open with
regards to the format, but I think there are a number of things that folks
are interested in here and it might be useful to try and see if we can
coordinate a bit to actually contribute something that offers reuse for
everybody.

It also might be useful for some of us to discuss the current
implementation/capabilities and what we feel is missing (if anything).

Thanks,
John

Renuka et al,



No specific preference on how to communicate…  Regarding blueprints:



NetApp will be submitting a blueprint for integration with NetApp's
OnCommand Provisoning Manager Service Catalog.  We've also interest in the
following:



https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/filedriver



Please also add Jim Holl (cc'd here) to this distribution.



Thanks!

Hello,



I thought I should get a thread started with everyone who wants to be
involved with the nova volume code.



1.       I was wondering how people would like to communicate going forward
– mailing list, weekly/biweekly meetings, or emails as required?



2.       Could we share any blueprints/ roadmaps that we have, so that
everyone knows what’s coming, and to avoid duplicating effort.
Currently Citrix is working on getting the storage manager code upstream.
Here is the blueprint for that:
http://wiki.openstack.org/xenapi-sm-volume-driver

I know this one is going to be merged upstream soon:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/volume-cleanup

I couldn’t find any blueprint for the session we had about “Secure control
path for Nova-volume attach”.
Vish, do you know the status of these blueprints -
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova?searchtext=volume ?



Please add anyone from your team I may have missed.



Thanks,

Renuka.
