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.
