Volume drivers¶
To use different volume drivers for the cinder-volume service, use the parameters described in these sections.
These volume drivers are included in the Block Storage repository. To set a volume
driver, use the volume_driver
flag.
The default is:
volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.lvm.LVMVolumeDriver
Note that some third party storage systems may maintain more detailed configuration documentation elsewhere. Contact your vendor for more information if needed.
