Using the following (undocumented?) request to replace the volume attachment isn't successful either: curl -i 'http://10.47.52.20:8774/v2/35c70d4fc1414f708a547a9a6ee179ad/servers/6ae98f88-e706-44de-91f3-8756f9ba7ef6/os-volume_attachments/f5e5e5f6-61ce-4601-a7c5-c09cf2392425' -X PUT -H "X-Auth-Project-Id: Demo" -H "User-Agent: python-novaclient" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -H "X-Auth-Token: xxx" -d '{"volumeAttachment": {"volumeId": "401c6474-5d41-4bb7-a461-b20f64014003"}}' HTTP/1.1 202 Accepted Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Length: 0 in spite of the empty response not reporting any error.
