As I commented above, it looks like nova volumes always start with a UUID. If this is true then we can just make the cinder tests slightly more clever, since cinder volumes default to being called 'volume-<UUID>' so will never collide. If somebody can confirm that nova volumes will always start with a UUID then we can code around the shared volume group in the tests. _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
