Before we completely pile on option 1, can we get devstack changed to run this way? I think the amount of pain / ease that transition is for users and the OpenStack CI team will greatly inform this decision, and give us some good data points on how tough this is for people to convert.

All, Just wanted to note that either decision means a revision and addition of documentation - to me, one option does not create more doc need than the other. Removal or deprecation, both require documentation. Anne On Wed, Jul 11, 2012 at 11:22 AM, Narayan Desai narayan.de...@gmail.com wrote:

Vish, How would the Nova migration from Essex to Folsom take place ? I'm wondering how we can validate Folsom without risking an existing Essex installation via some sort of clone/migrate operation. What is your assessment of the risk that Cinder is less stable than Nova volume ? Option 1

I'm normally very much in favor of stable APIs and slow deprecation, but in this case I'm far more concerned about having to support two completely independent codebases. If we pursue option 2 I think the language there needs to be even stronger and we'd have to say that nova-volume is
