Description RHOS Integration 2013-12-12 18:43:55 UTC
Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/ibm-unify-xiv-ds8k.

Description:

IBM XIV and IBM DS8K Storage Arrays have identical interfaces.

Instead of creating a Cinder driver per Array type, a consolidated Cinder Volume Driver called xiv_ds8k.py will manage both.
