Doc Text:
The default driver with Block Storage service is the internal LVM software iSCSI driver. This is the volume back-end which manages local volumes. However, the Cinder iSCSI LVM driver has significant performance issues. In production environments, with high I/O activity, there are many potential issues which could affect performance or data integrity, Red Hat strongly recommends using a certified Block Storage plug-in provider for storage in a production environment. The software iSCSI LVM driver should be used and is only supported for single node evaluations and proof of concept environments.

Assigning to Deepti for review.

Deepti - this covers the work for OSP 7, and we should be able to cherry pick the commit from OSP 7 to cover the same issue in this version, so I am not setting a QA contact for this one.
