Volume manager manages creating, attaching, detaching, and persistent storage.
Persistent storage volumes keep their state independent of instances. You can attach to an instance, terminate the instance, spawn a new instance (even one from a different image) and re-attach the volume with the same data intact.

Failover a backend to a secondary replication target.
Instructs a replication capable/configured backend to failover to one of it’s secondary replication targets. host=None is an acceptable input, and leaves it to the driver to failover to the only configured target, or to choose a target on it’s own. All of the hosts volumes will be passed on to the driver in order for it to determine the replicated volumes on the host, if needed.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|
Freeze management plane on this backend.
Basically puts the control/management plane into a Read Only state. We should handle this in the scheduler, however this is provided to let the driver know in case it needs/wants to do something specific on the backend.
| Parameters: | context – security context |
|---|
Get capabilities of backend storage.
Perform any required initialization.
Prepare volume for connection from host represented by connector.
This method calls the driver initialize_connection and returns it to the caller. The connector parameter is a dictionary with information about the host that will connect to the volume in the following format:
{
'ip': ip,
'initiator': initiator,
}
ip: the ip address of the connecting machine
initiator: the iscsi initiator name of the connecting machine. This can be None if the connecting machine does not support iscsi connections.

Drivers for volumes.
Bases: object
Executes commands relating to Volumes.
Base Driver for Cinder Volume Control Path, This includes supported/required implementation for API calls. Also provides generic implementation of core features like cloning, copy_image_to_volume etc, this way drivers that inherit from this base class and don’t offer their own impl can fall back on a general solution here.
Key thing to keep in mind with this driver is that it’s intended that these drivers ONLY implement Control Path details (create, delete, extend...), while transport or data path related implementation should be a member object that we call a connector. The point here is that for example don’t allow the LVM driver to implement iSCSI methods, instead call whatever connector it has configured via conf file (iSCSI{LIO, TGT, IET}, FC, etc).
In the base class and for example the LVM driver we do this via a has-a relationship and just provide an interface to the specific connector methods. How you do this in your own driver is of course up to you.

Removes an export for a volume.
Removes an export for a snapshot.
Restore an existing backup to a new or existing volume.
Determine if driver is running in Secure File Operations mode.

Updates a group.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Returns: | model_update, add_volumes_update, remove_volumes_update |
model_update is a dictionary that the driver wants the manager to update upon a successful return. If None is returned, the manager will set the status to ‘available’.
add_volumes_update and remove_volumes_update are lists of dictionaries that the driver wants the manager to update upon a successful return. Note that each entry requires a {‘id’: xxx} so that the correct volume entry can be updated. If None is returned, the volume will remain its original status. Also note that you cannot directly assign add_volumes to add_volumes_update as add_volumes is a list of cinder.db.sqlalchemy.models.Volume objects and cannot be used for db update directly. Same with remove_volumes.
If the driver throws an exception, the status of the group as well as those of the volumes to be added/removed will be set to ‘error’.
Return model update for migrated volume.
Each driver implementing this method needs to be responsible for the values of _name_id and provider_location. If None is returned or either key is not set, it means the volume table does not need to change the value(s) for the key(s). The return format is {“_name_id”: value, “provider_location”: value}.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Returns: | model_update to update DB with any needed changes |
Get provider info updates from driver.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Returns: | tuple (volume_updates, snapshot_updates) |

Create a volume efficiently from an existing image.
image_location is a string whose format depends on the image service backend in use. The driver should use it to determine whether cloning is possible.
image_id is a string which represents id of the image. It can be used by the driver to introspect internal stores or registry to do an efficient image clone.
image_meta is a dictionary that includes ‘disk_format’ (e.g. raw, qcow2) and other image attributes that allow drivers to decide whether they can clone the image without first requiring conversion.
image_service is the reference of the image_service to use. Note that this is needed to be passed here for drivers that will want to fetch images from the image service directly.
Returns a dict of volume properties eg. provider_location, boolean indicating whether cloning occurred

Bases: object
List snapshots on the backend available for management by Cinder.
Returns a list of dictionaries, each specifying a snapshot in the host, with the following keys: - reference (dictionary): The reference for a snapshot, which can be
passed to “manage_existing_snapshot”.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|
Brings an existing backend storage object under Cinder management.
existing_ref is passed straight through from the API request’s manage_existing_ref value, and it is up to the driver how this should be interpreted. It should be sufficient to identify a storage object that the driver should somehow associate with the newly-created cinder snapshot structure.
There are two ways to do this:
If the existing_ref doesn’t make sense, or doesn’t refer to an existing backend storage object, raise a ManageExistingInvalidReference exception.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|
Return size of snapshot to be managed by manage_existing.
When calculating the size, round up to the next GB.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Returns size: | Volume snapshot size in GiB (integer) |
Removes the specified snapshot from Cinder management.
Does not delete the underlying backend storage object.
For most drivers, this will not need to do anything. However, some drivers might use this call as an opportunity to clean up any Cinder-specific configuration that they have associated with the backend storage object.
| Parameters: | snapshot – Cinder volume snapshot to unmanage |
|---|
Bases: object
List volumes on the backend available for management by Cinder.
Returns a list of dictionaries, each specifying a volume in the host, with the following keys: - reference (dictionary): The reference for a volume, which can be

existing_ref is passed straight through from the API request’s manage_existing_ref value, and it is up to the driver how this should be interpreted. It should be sufficient to identify a storage object that the driver should somehow associate with the newly-created cinder volume structure.
There are two ways to do this:
If the existing_ref doesn’t make sense, or doesn’t refer to an existing backend storage object, raise a ManageExistingInvalidReference exception.
The volume may have a volume_type, and the driver can inspect that and compare against the properties of the referenced backend storage object. If they are incompatible, raise a ManageExistingVolumeTypeMismatch, specifying a reason for the failure.
| Parameters: |

| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Returns: | model_update, snapshots_model_update |
param snapshots is retrieved directly from the db. It is a list of cinder.db.sqlalchemy.models.Snapshot to be precise. It cannot be assigned to snapshots_model_update. snapshots_model_update is a list of dictionaries. It has to be built by the driver. An entry will be in this format: {‘id’: xxx, ‘status’: xxx, ......}. model_update will be in this format: {‘status’: xxx, ......}.

If the status in model_update is ‘error’, the manager will raise an exception and the status of cgsnapshot will be set to ‘error’ in the db. If snapshots_model_update is not returned by the driver, the manager will set the status of every snapshot to ‘error’ in the except block.
If the driver raises an exception during the operation, it will be caught by the try-except block in the manager and the statuses of cgsnapshot and all snapshots will be set to ‘error’.
For a successful operation, the driver can either build the model_update and snapshots_model_update and return them or return None, None. The statuses of cgsnapshot and all snapshots will be set to ‘available’ at the end of the manager function.
Creates a consistencygroup.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Returns: | model_update |
model_update will be in this format: {‘status’: xxx, ......}.
If the status in model_update is ‘error’, the manager will throw an exception and it will be caught in the try-except block in the manager. If the driver throws an exception, the manager will also catch it in the try-except block. The group status in the db will be changed to ‘error’.
For a successful operation, the driver can either build the model_update and return it or return None. The group status will be set to ‘available’.
Creates a consistencygroup from source.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Returns: | model_update, volumes_model_update |
The source can be cgsnapshot or a source cg.
param volumes is retrieved directly from the db. It is a list of cinder.db.sqlalchemy.models.Volume to be precise. It cannot be assigned to volumes_model_update. volumes_model_update is a list of dictionaries. It has to be built by the driver. An entry will be in this format: {‘id’: xxx, ‘status’: xxx, ......}. model_update will be in this format: {‘status’: xxx, ......}.
To be consistent with other volume operations, the manager will assume the operation is successful if no exception is thrown by the driver. For a successful operation, the driver can either build the model_update and volumes_model_update and return them or return None, None.
Deletes a cgsnapshot.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Returns: | model_update, snapshots_model_update |
param snapshots is retrieved directly from the db. It is a list of cinder.db.sqlalchemy.models.Snapshot to be precise. It cannot be assigned to snapshots_model_update. snapshots_model_update is a list of dictionaries. It has to be built by the driver. An entry will be in this format: {‘id’: xxx, ‘status’: xxx, ......}. model_update will be in this format: {‘status’: xxx, ......}.
The driver should populate snapshots_model_update and model_update and return them.
The manager will check snapshots_model_update and update db accordingly for each snapshot. If the driver successfully deleted some snapshots but failed to delete others, it should set statuses of the snapshots accordingly so that the manager can update db correctly.
If the status in any entry of snapshots_model_update is ‘error_deleting’ or ‘error’, the status in model_update will be set to the same if it is not already ‘error_deleting’ or ‘error’.
If the status in model_update is ‘error_deleting’ or ‘error’, the manager will raise an exception and the status of cgsnapshot will be set to ‘error’ in the db. If snapshots_model_update is not returned by the driver, the manager will set the status of every snapshot to ‘error’ in the except block.
If the driver raises an exception during the operation, it will be caught by the try-except block in the manager and the statuses of cgsnapshot and all snapshots will be set to ‘error’.
For a successful operation, the driver can either build the model_update and snapshots_model_update and return them or return None, None. The statuses of cgsnapshot and all snapshots will be set to ‘deleted’ after the manager deletes them from db.
Deletes a consistency group.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Returns: | model_update, volumes_model_update |
param volumes is retrieved directly from the db. It is a list of cinder.db.sqlalchemy.models.Volume to be precise. It cannot be assigned to volumes_model_update. volumes_model_update is a list of dictionaries. It has to be built by the driver. An entry will be in this format: {‘id’: xxx, ‘status’: xxx, ......}. model_update will be in this format: {‘status’: xxx, ......}.
The driver should populate volumes_model_update and model_update and return them.
The manager will check volumes_model_update and update db accordingly for each volume. If the driver successfully deleted some volumes but failed to delete others, it should set statuses of the volumes accordingly so that the manager can update db correctly.
If the status in any entry of volumes_model_update is ‘error_deleting’ or ‘error’, the status in model_update will be set to the same if it is not already ‘error_deleting’ or ‘error’.
If the status in model_update is ‘error_deleting’ or ‘error’, the manager will raise an exception and the status of the group will be set to ‘error’ in the db. If volumes_model_update is not returned by the driver, the manager will set the status of every volume in the group to ‘error’ in the except block.
If the driver raises an exception during the operation, it will be caught by the try-except block in the manager. The statuses of the group and all volumes in it will be set to ‘error’.
For a successful operation, the driver can either build the model_update and volumes_model_update and return them or return None, None. The statuses of the group and all volumes will be set to ‘deleted’ after the manager deletes them from db.
Return pool name where volume reside on.
| Parameters: | volume – The volume hosted by the driver. |
|---|---|
| Returns: | name of the pool where given volume is in. |
Allow connection from connector for a snapshot.
Disallow connection from connector
Disallow connection from connector for a snapshot.
Unmanage the specified snapshot from Cinder management.
Updates a consistency group.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|---|
| Returns: | model_update, add_volumes_update, remove_volumes_update |
model_update is a dictionary that the driver wants the manager to update upon a successful return. If None is returned, the manager will set the status to ‘available’.
add_volumes_update and remove_volumes_update are lists of dictionaries that the driver wants the manager to update upon a successful return. Note that each entry requires a {‘id’: xxx} so that the correct volume entry can be updated. If None is returned, the volume will remain its original status. Also note that you cannot directly assign add_volumes to add_volumes_update as add_volumes is a list of cinder.db.sqlalchemy.models.Volume objects and cannot be used for db update directly. Same with remove_volumes.
If the driver throws an exception, the status of the group as well as those of the volumes to be added/removed will be set to ‘error’.
Cinder uses iSCSI to export storage volumes from multiple storage nodes. These iSCSI exports are attached (using libvirt) directly to running instances.
Cinder volumes are exported over the primary system VLAN (usually VLAN 1), and not over individual VLANs.
The underlying volumes by default are LVM logical volumes, created on demand within a single large volume group.
