Hi, A couple of years ago I created a Nova spec for the StorPool image backend: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/137830/ There was some discussion, but then our company could not immediately allocate the resources to write the driver itself, so the spec languished and was eventually abandoned. N

Hi, During the Juno and Kilo timeframes, there was an idea to use libvirt storage pools for the Nova image backends. I believe that the plan back then was to deprecate image backend drivers that do not use libvirt storage pools in Kilo and them remove them altogether in Liberty. Is this still th
