The cinder.volume.drivers.san.san Module

Default Driver for san-stored volumes.

The unique thing about a SAN is that we don’t expect that we can run the volume controller on the SAN hardware. We expect to access it over SSH or some API.

class SanISCSIDriver(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: cinder.volume.driver.ISCSIDriver

Base class for SAN-style storage volumes

A SAN-style storage value is ‘different’ because the volume controller probably won’t run on it, so we need to access is over SSH or another remote protocol.

check_for_setup_error()

Returns an error if prerequisites aren’t met.

create_cloned_volume(volume, src_vref)

Create a cloen of the specified volume.

create_export(context, volume)

Exports the volume.

ensure_export(context, volume)

Synchronously recreates an export for a logical volume.

remove_export(context, volume)

Removes an export for a logical volume.
