Hi Ahmed - We don't have a specific Cinder install guide, but this wiki page gives guidance: http://wiki.openstack.org/MigrateToCinder
Specific to nova.conf: set the correct volume api class in nova.conf volume_api_class=nova.volume.cinder.API disable the nova-volume-api in enabled apis in /etc/nova/nova.conf sed -i "s/osapi_volume,// /etc/nova/nova.conf", if you do not have enabled_apis set explicitly set it to enabled_apis=ec2,osapi_compute,metadata as osapi_volume is included by default Hope this helps.
