Vladislav,

Setting up the volume instances as active/passive has been done by a number of users for quite some time and it has been working fine, as far as I know.  If you are looking for an HA setup right now, that is the safest approach.

We have been working on getting HA (Active/Active) support into Cinder and much of the support is there but we are still working on determining how we can test and validate that drivers do functions in Active/Active mode.  Once we have agreement on the testing process you will see drivers getting marked as supporting Active/Active HA.

Hope this information helps.

Jay

Hi,

I'm testing multinode cluster with several cinder-volume instances. The latter are configured with iSCSI storage (ZFSSA). To enable HA of cinder-volume I had to specify 'host' option, otherwise volumes will be bound to a specific host (only good for LVM driver). This works so far but I am concerned about reported issues like race conditions:

Is Active / Passive requirement for non-local (iSCSI-like) backends still valid? I also see 'cluster' option for A/A which still is 'not supported':

Thanks,
