Nice work.
When you've got the rest of the API bits ironed out (particularly
attach/detach) I'll help work on making sure Horizon is fully functional
there. Note that there's also an F3 Horizon blueprint for splitting volumes
into its own optional panel:

We should coordinate on these things. ;-)

Subject: [Openstack] Cinder status update
For those of you that don't know Cinder is the new project intended to
separate block storage out of Nova and provide it via it's own service. The
goal is to have a functional replacement for Nova-Volumes by Folsom 2
(don't worry, you'll be able to select which service to use). So far things
have
gone fairly well, we're at a stage now where we have a beta version that's
ready for use in devstack environments for folks that might be curious or
interested in doing some testing/fixing :)
I haven't done anything fancy like packaging it all up in vagrant, but
depending on the level of interest we can look into that. Currently the
needed patches are in Gerrit as Drafts, so rather than mess with adding a ton
of people who are just a little curious, I've created a github fork that can
be
used just for initial looking around/testing.
In order to get an install up and running all you need to do is clone the
following version of devstack:
https://github.com/j-griffith/devstack.git (you should also be able to just
modify your vagrant attributes file to point to this version of devstack of
course).
The stackrc in the version of devstack on j-griffith is hard coded for the
cinder
service and the special repos in order to make it as easy as possible to
check
out the beta.
Run stack.sh and you should be in business...
Please note that this is a hack to get things up and running for folks that
have
expressed interest in testing and seeing where things are at. There are
surely issues/bugs and things that aren't done yet, but this is suitable
to be
called beta.
What to expect:
* Create/List/Delete volumes on the cinder service via:
cinderclient ('cinder'), euca2ools
* Create/List/Delete volume-snapshots on the cinder service via:
cinderclient ('cinder'), euca2ools
* Attach/Detach needs some work but it can be done via euca-attach-
volume
What's in progress:
* Attach/Detach for cinderclient
* Seems to be something not working in horizon any longer, need to
look at this
* Lots of cleanup and unused nova code to strip out of cinder project
still
* Tests (unit tests, as well as devstack tests)
Note there are a fixes/changes on a daily basis so it's very much a moving
target. Official repos should all be updated and ready for consumption no
later than the end of this week.
Give it a try, if you find an issue or something missing let me know, or
better
yet fix it up and send me a pull request :)
Thanks,
John

Looks like most of these issues are taken care of. I have a few
things to button up elsewhere, but should be pushing changes tonight
or tomorrow that will enable alot of this.
Also won't need to use my personal github any longer :)
I'll send an update to everyone on what to add to localrc to make this
work when everything is in place.
Thanks,
John
