Description Jacob Ansari 2021-01-14 19:34:59 UTC
Description of problem:
Using more than one NFS backend for Cinder currently requires either a custom cinder-volume container image or using post scripts, as is detailed in  https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3668071 and in case 02659878 . A simpler, less involved method that could be documented in deployment docs would be an advantageous .

Comment 1 Alan Bishop 2021-01-14 20:31:41 UTC
I looked at the customer case and see this is NetApp and not generic NFS. The good news is the feature request is already covered by bug #1640198, and is targeted for OSP-17.

This BZ could be closed as a duplicate of the other, but I wonder if the customer would be happy waiting until OSP-17.

@Greg, we need your input on how to target this BZ and bug #1640198.

Comment 3 Alan Bishop 2021-01-15 20:52:19 UTC
Closing per comment #2. To answer the question posed there, it would not be technically difficult or risky to backport the upstream patches to make the feature available in OSP-16.2. The only  challenge would be getting two separate patches through the CI gates across 3 upstream releases.
