Re: ZFS/ZVol + iscsi for volume
As Diego pointed out, this should all work already. You just point your
nova-volume at your Solaris-like box, and it runs all the commands for you
(over SSH). I wrote the original way-back-when as a stepping-stone to
support for HP SANs (as I had much easier access to Solaris than real
SANs), and it sounds like Diego fixed it up in Diablo, so it hasn't totally
bit-rotted.
Have you tried this? Did you encounter any problems? Is there something
extra you need?
