I see so at least that confirms I didn't just miss it at puppet-manila
... so that is a prerequisite really to us being able to configure and
enable manila-data in tripleo and someone will have to look at doing that.

OK thanks, so we can proceed with a/p for manila-share and manila-data
(one thought below) for now and revisit once you've worked out the
details there.

thanks for the clarification. So then I wonder if this is a feature we
can live w/out for now, especially if this is an obstacle to landing
manila-anything in tripleo. I mean, if we can live w/out the Share
Migration Feature, until we get proper support for configuring
manila-data landed, then lets land w/out manila data and just be really
clear about what is going on, manila-data pending etc.

thanks again, marios
