This was added long ago to support testing environments without a lot of disk 
space.

[openstack-dev] [Cinder] Question about the magic "100M" when creating zero-size volume

2014-04-29 Thread Zhangleiqiang (Trump)
Hi, all:

I find in some of the cinder backend volume drivers, there are codes in 
create_volume as follows:

#cinder.volume.drivers.lvm
def _sizestr(self, size_in_g):
if int(size_in_g) == 0:
return '100m'

Similar codes also exist in ibm.gpfs, san.hp.hp_lefthand_cliq_proxy, 
san.solaris and huawei.ssh_common. I wonder why the "100M" is used here, from 
the git log I cannot find useful info.

Thanks.
