Description of problem:

With RHEL 6.5 cinder can be accesses using libgfapi, which is my understanding provides better performance and supports the volume snapshot features.

Comment 5 Alvaro Lopez Ortega 2014-02-25 17:22:19 UTC

This RFE seems to be out of scope for Packstack.
Perry, do you have any comment on it?

Comment 6 Perry Myers 2014-02-28 23:00:26 UTC

I think this is a nice to have for Packstack but for Foreman it is a must have.

Folks using Packstack for an all-in-one PoC would likely not be configuring Red Hat Storage

Moving to A4

Comment 10 Arthur Berezin 2014-03-18 19:52:22 UTC

The scope of this RFE is to implement the Puppet modules to deploy Cinder with libgfapi for Foreman [BZ#1062693] to leverage.

Comment 11 Martin Magr 2014-03-27 11:24:46 UTC

So according to [1] the only thing to enable Cinder using libgfapi is to modify qemu_allowed_storage_drivers in nova.conf and probably use appropriate Puppet class for volume [2]. But both of that should be done by Foreman itself.
