This is not a bug.  You should write a blueprint for nova that adds the
HGST libvirt volume driver shim and your blueprint should depend on
blueprint use-os-brick-library - there are others already doing this
today for liberty that have specs.  I'm not sure you need a spec for
this since it's pretty mechanical, but you should have a blueprint, it's
definitely not a bug.

Title:
  OS-Brick connector needs to add HGST Solutions shim

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When Nova is patched to use os-brick, there will be a couple changes
  required to support the HGST Solutions connector type in it.

  Three very minor changes need to be made to make this happen:

  1) Because os-brick is a library and not an application, the rootwrap
  for Nova will need to include the required CLI commands to
  attach/detach volumes as it can't live in os-brick's repository

  2) libvirt_volume_types needs to include the HGST=>
  LibvirtHGSTVolumeDriver mapping, because os-brick doesn't support
  discovery of supported types

  3) A small shim LibvirtHGSTVolumeDriver calling the os-brick library
  needs to be added, again because there is no generic way presently for
  os-brick to map to specific volume types in libvirtvolumetype.
