The most recent place this bit me was with iscsi_helper. If cinder.conf has: [DEFAULT] iscsi_helper = lioadm enabled_backends = lvm1 [lvm1] volume_driver = ...LVMISCSIDriver # no iscsi_helper setting You end up with c-vol showing "iscsi_helper = lioadm", and "lvm1.iscsi_helper = tgtadm", which is the default in the code, and not the default in the configuration file. I agree that this is confusing, I think it's also blatantly wrong. I'm not sure how to fix it, but I think it's some combination of your suggestions above and possibly having to introduce new option names. __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
