This action calls the same methods nova would after it successfully detaches a volume. By exposing it to the administrator it makes it's easier to repair un-syncronized state between services. Generally when the host is no longer attached, but the volume state is wrong. Future work: The Iscsi based drivers don't seem to use initialize_connection and terminate_connection to create the export for the volume. This would be more useful with drivers that do that. I added the force parameter to terminate_connection for drivers that may want to differintiate between a normal terminate and the force detach. Future Nova work: Nova will want an admin action to update the bdm tables - today it's a bit of nova-manage shell work. Change-Id: Icc1cff0f50a5ace9ebdae62c85524ee8d6ec23e0
The Choose Your Own Adventure README for Cinder
You have come across a storage service for an open cloud computing service. It has identified itself as "Cinder." It was abstracted from the Nova project.
To monitor it from a distance: follow @openstack on twitter.
To tame it for use in your own cloud: read http://docs.openstack.org
To study its anatomy: read http://cinder.openstack.org
To dissect it in detail: visit http://github.com/openstack/cinder
To taunt it with its weaknesses: use http://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder
To watch it: http://jenkins.openstack.org
To hack at it: read HACKING
To cry over its pylint problems: http://jenkins.openstack.org/job/cinder-pylint/violations
