Re: [Cinder] Loading cinder.conf

 

Ray

I am wondering why I see the default driver even after I changed the entry
in cinder.conf. I un-commented the line for volume_driver and changed the
driver name. I tried to print volume driver in the __init__ and I see it
still pointing to LVMISCSIDriver. It seems I am missing something and its
not loading values from cinder.conf.
