HPE 3PAR and HPE Primera Driver for OpenStack Cinder
====================================================
The ``HPE3PARFCDriver`` and ``HPE3PARISCSIDriver`` drivers, which are based on
the Block Storage service (Cinder) plug-in architecture, run volume operations
by communicating with the HPE 3PAR storage system over HTTP, HTTPS, and SSH
connections. The HTTP and HTTPS communications use ``python-3parclient``,
which is part of the Python standard library.

To use the HPE Primera backend, install the following software and components

* HPE Primera Operating System software version 4.0.0.
* On HPE Primera storage system, Dedup & Compression is combined as single
option 'deco'. Due to this, only either 'thin' volume or 'deco' volume
can be created.
* Also, port number 443 is used instead of 8080. This only affects
cinder configuration.
