Cinder luckily had someone that was able to focus on fixing a lot of the quota issues for at least one cycle. As far as I can tell, it's at least passably working at this point. But I also don't think our test coverage, nor end user usage, is extensive enough at this point to know with some certainty that it really is in good shape. A lot of the discussion around that has actually been about getting it out of Cinder and into a common library or service so that hierarchical quota usage and encforcement is done in a consistent way across all projects. There was a group working on this, with weekly meeting IIRC, but that unfortunately also appears to have fizzled out. __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: [email protected]?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
