This will now require a separate section "Use Cases". This was originally within "Problem description", but use cases seems to be missed when it was filled out. This will hopefully improve spec submission. Change-Id: I3615ca5ff5c46851e682739a8343242e2f1b0a8d

Use Cases
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
Proposed change
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
FC Support
|
|
Add a new driver class.
|
|
|
|
FC Auto Zoning Support
|
|
Add logic in intialize_connection() and terminate_connection() according
|
|
to blueprint
|
|
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/cinder-fc-zone-manager and
|
|
the fix for bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/1308318.
|
|
|
|
Read-only Volume Support
|
|
Add logic in intialize_connection() according to blueprint
|
|
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/read-only-volumes.
|
|
|
|
External Volume Management Suppport
|
|
Implement driver API according to blueprint
|
|
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/add-export-import-volumes.
|
|
|
|
Advance LUN Features
|
|
Add logic to support more extra spec key-value pairs
|
|
|
|
Initiator Auto Registration
|
|
Do logic in intialize_connection() to do EMC-specific initiator
|
|
registration.
|
|
|
|
Storage Group Auto Deletion
|
|
Add resource recycling logic in intialize_connection()
|
|
|
|
iSCSI Target Portal Selection
|
|
Add logic in intialize_connection() to select target portal that is
|
|
pingable from the initiator.
|
|
|
|
Multiple Authentication Type Support
|
|
Add new option in configuration file so that the driver can use different
|
|
authentication types that have been supported by VNX arrays.
|
|
|
|
Security File Support
|
|
Add a new option in configuration file so that encrypted credentials can
|
|
be used instead of credentials in plain text.
|
|
|
|
Storage-Assisted Retype
|
|
Implement driver API according to blueprint
|
|
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/volume-retype.
|
|
|
|
Storage-Assisted Volume Migration
|
|
Implement migrate_volume() so that VNX native LUN Migration is leveraged.
|
|
|
|
SP Toggle for HA
|
|
Original implementation only send management requests to one SP. Since VNX
|
|
arrays have dual SPs, the driver is enhanced to send requests to the other
|
|
SP is one is down.
