Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/cloudbyte-elastistor-iscsi-driver-cinder.

Description:

This proposal is to introduce a new volume driver support for CloudByte ElastiStor.

ElastiStor driver (ElastistoreISCSIDriver) will be extending from SanISCSIDriver. This driver will implement following functionality

1. Volume Create/Delete
2. Volume Attach/Detach
3. Snapshot Create/Delete
4. Create Volume from Snapshot
5. Get volume stats
6. Copy Image to Volume
7. Copy Volume to Image
8. Clone Volume

The driver uses python's http library to communicate with the ElastiStor server. We already have the driver code implemented for Grizzly. We need to migrate the code to Havana.

CloudByte ElastiStor is a full-featured software-defined storage QoS solution, purpose-built for the cloud and virtualized environments. Software-only ElastiStor makes storage predictable, affordable, and easy, even as you scale to thousands of applications. ElastiStor lets you custom-build storage infrastructure based on your requirements, with support for SATA, SAS, and SSD hardware as well as NFS, CIFS, FC, and iSCSI protocols
