Jay S. Bryant 0395353c4b Move config-reference to configuration
It was discovered today that the 'config-reference' directory
was supposed to have been renamed to 'configuration'.  The doc
team was expecting it to be at that location so that they could
automatically link to it from contributor/index.html .

This patch just moves the directory.  I am going to be submitting
a subsequent patch that properly sets out the framework for the
additional directories so that we don't have addition problems
in the future.

Welcome to Cinder's developer documentation!

Cinder is an OpenStack project to provide "block storage as a service".

  • Component based architecture: Quickly add new behaviors
  • Highly available: Scale to very serious workloads
  • Fault-Tolerant: Isolated processes avoid cascading failures
  • Recoverable: Failures should be easy to diagnose, debug, and rectify
  • Open Standards: Be a reference implementation for a community-driven api

This documentation is generated by the Sphinx toolkit and lives in the source tree. Additional draft and project documentation on Cinder and other components of OpenStack can be found on the OpenStack wiki. Cloud administrators, refer to docs.openstack.org.
