prelude: |
Welcome to the Xena release of the OpenStack Block Storage service
(cinder). With this release, the Block Storage API version 3 has
reached microversion **3.66**. The cinder team would like to
bring the following points to your attention. Details may be
found below.
* The Block Storage API v2, which was deprecated way back in the
Pike release, has been removed. We gently remind you that Pike
was a long time ago, and that version 3.0 of the Block Storage
API was designed to be completely compatible with version 2.
* Microversion 3.65 includes the display of information in the
volume or snapshot detail response to indicate whether that
resource consumes quota, and adds the ability to filter a
requested list of resources according to whether they consume
quota or not.
* Microversion 3.66 removes the necessity to add a 'force' flag
when requesting a snapshot of an in-use volume, given that this
is not a problem for modern storage systems.
* The volume-type detail response has been enhanced to include
non-sensitive "extra-specs" information in order to provide more
data for automated systems to select a volume type.
* The default policy configuration has been extensively rewritten.
* Many backend storage drivers have added features and fixed bugs.
