Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 18:35:32 UTC 
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/ability-to-create-multiple-volume-from-a-single-command.

Description:

The goal of the blueprint is to allow the creation of more volumes at the same time (of sequentially) from the cinder create command. The idea is the same as nova, thus a new option (new parameter of 'create') should be added like so:

$ cinder create --num-volumes 3 --display-name volume <size>

Obviously a UUID must be generated to differentiate all the volumes:

volume-3a69ab4d-8974-446a-8899-d31b31f318ce
volume-49eb8cc3-93aa-489f-8937-94d73825c1cd
volume-5e89a7c8-7482-4303-b080-265714d68279

This will also need additional input parameters on dashboard for number of volumes.
