Cinder: Support for multiple Volume Service AZs #30

Open snschee opened 7 years ago

snschee commented 7 years ago

In our Prod environment we currently use two Cinder Volume AZs. The first AZ was setup via SOC Crowbar. For the second AZ we used the stacked configuration file future and replaced some cinder.conf parameters.

But therefor we still use the non-clustered (active-passive) Cinder-Volume configuration where the Cinder-Volume services are pinned to a specific control node:

Can you please add support of multiple Cinder-Volume services in different Cinder-AZs in the same control cluster with active-passive failover support.

cinder active-passive is not working with multi-az setup, that is the problem
