This patch implements the v2.1 replication in the HuaweiDriver.
All function in replication v2 are removed. A new function,
failover_host, is added to support failover between backends.
When error occurred on primary backend, you can failover to
the secondary backend. But it's strongly recommended to recover
the primary backend.
After failover backend, the operations on the secondary backend
are limited. A simple example, if you create a new volume on
secondary, after failback, it can't be used. So, You should not
do that, such as create, delete, extend volumes, etc.
But you can detach volume if it's in in-use status, then do
attach to vm to make replication volumes R&W.
The configuration for v2.1 is almost the same as v2. Except that,
only one backend configuration is needed. A simple example as
follows:
[replica]
volume_driver =
cinder.volume.drivers.huawei.huawei_driver.HuaweiISCSIDriver
cinder_huawei_conf_file = /etc/cinder/cinder_huawei_conf.xml
replication_device = backend_id:huawei-replica-1,
storage_pool:pool_1,
san_address:san_url_1;san_url_2,
iscsi_default_target_ip:192.168.1.100,
san_user:admin,san_password:passwd
