    Hi Mike,

    I received a email named “All Cinder Drivers Must Have a Third
    Party CI By March 19th 2015”and I feel confused about the “*real*
    storage backend”.

    One of the requirements is: Run Tempest [5][6] volume tests
    against the devstack environment that's hooked up to your *real*
    storage backend.

    ·And my confusion is:

    ·Every time the CI is triggered by a newly came patch, the 3rd CI
    will build a new devstack environment and create a default
    cinder.conf file whick will set the backend to
    “lvmdriver-1”automatically. And the tempest will run against
    “lvmdriver-1”. So what’s the meaning for a *real*storage backend
    since the cinder.conf will be set to use
    “lvmdriver-1”automatically for every newly came patch ? And how
    should I configure the cinder.conf file to run the tempest for the
    newly came driver patch came from different venders since
    different venders need different configuration for cinder.conf
    file and need different storage backend. I mean, does our CI
    should run tempest against our *real* storage backend for every
    newly came driver patch in cinder?

Liu,

Yes, by default DevStack configures cinder with "LVM". But we can customize DevStack to configure cinder with our own backend ("real storage backend").

Below is the link to the path, enables Automatic Configuration of GlusterFS for Cinder using devstack:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/133102/

And also below it the link to Configure CEPH with Cinder using devstack:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/65113/

Above two are old way of "real storage" plugin implementation. Sean Dague proposed a new way of devstack plugin implementation. Have a look at below two links:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/142805/
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/142805/7/doc/source/plugins.rst

    Thanks and regards,

    Liu
