Hi, all

Currently we have customer demands about adding parameter "volume_type" to --block-device to provide the support of specified storage backend to boot instance. And I find one newly drafted Blueprint that aiming to address the same feature: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/support-boot-instance-set-store-type ;

As I know this is kind of "proxy" feature for cinder and we don't like it in general, but as the boot from volume functional was already there, so maybe it is OK to support another parameter?

So, my question is that what are your opinions about this in general? Do you like it or it will not be able to got approved at all?

Thanks,

Kevin Zheng

Hi,

Do you need to boot from different volume types using a single image? If not, you can just set image metadata property "image_cinder_img_volume_type=your_volume_type" to associate certain image with some volume type.

Best,
Maxim
