From 2acfdddf0794754aa0e32a56800e77387f75ce38 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH] Add iSCSI export support to the StorPool driver

Add four new driver options:
- storpool_iscsi_cinder_volume: use StorPool iSCSI attachments whenever
  the cinder-volume service needs to attach a volume to the controller,
  e.g. for copying an image to a volume or vice versa
- storpool_iscsi_export_to:
  - an empty string to use the StorPool native protocol for exporting
    volumes
  - the string "*" to always use iSCSI for exporting volumes
  - an experimental, not fully supported list of IQN patterns to export
    volumes to using iSCSI; this results in a Cinder driver that exports
    different volumes using different storage protocols
- storpool_iscsi_portal_group: the name of the iSCSI portal group
  defined in the StorPool configuration to use for these export
- storpool_iscsi_learn_initiator_iqns: automatically create StorPool
  configuration records for an initiator when a volume is first exported
  to it

When exporting volumes via iSCSI, report the storage protocol as
"iSCSI".

+Using iSCSI as the transport protocol
+-------------------------------------
+
+The StorPool distributed storage system uses its own, highly optimized and
+tailored for its specifics, network protocol for communication between
+the storage servers and the clients (the OpenStack cluster nodes where
+StorPool-backed volumes will be attached). There are cases when granting
+various nodes access to the StorPool data network or installing and
+running the ``storpool_block`` client service on them may pose difficulties.
+The StorPool servers may also expose the user-created volumes and snapshots
+using the standard iSCSI protocol that only requires TCP routing and
+connectivity between the storage servers and the StorPool clients.
+The StorPool Cinder driver may be configured to export volumes and
+snapshots via iSCSI using the ``iscsi_export_to`` and ``iscsi_portal_group``
+configuration options.
+
+Additionally, even if e.g. the hypervisor nodes running Nova will use
+the StorPool network protocol and run the ``storpool_block`` service
+(so the ``iscsi_export_to`` option has its default empty string value),
+the ``iscsi_cinder_volume`` option configures the StorPool Cinder driver
+so that only the ``cinder-volume`` service will use the iSCSI protocol when
+attaching volumes and snapshots to transfer data to and from Glance images.
+
+Multiattach support for StorPool is only enabled if iSCSI is used:
+``iscsi_export_to`` is set to ``*``, that is, when all StorPool volumes
+will be exported via iSCSI to all initiators.
