TripleO supports deploying additional external Ceph clusters via the CephExternalMultiConfig THT parameter. This RFE would add support for configuring cinder RBD backends associated with those clusters. The RFE would add a new CinderRbdMultiConfig parameter that follows the pattern of other cinder backends, such as these: - CinderNetappMultiConfig - CinderPowermaxMultiConfig - CinderPowerStoreMultiConfig - CinderPureMultiConfig - CinderScMultiConfig - CinderXtremioMultiConfig Each RBD backend could be placed in its own AZ.
This RFE did not make 17.1GA and is being deprioritised due to low recent activity and the fact that OSP18 will not be deployed by TripleO. If you think this RFE should be reconsidered please provide the customer's use case and business justification.
This 17.1 RFE did not get the opportunity to get officially tested by QE. A similar feature will be available with RHOSO in a future feature release.
