For the convenience of operators, the `unsupported driver removal policy
|
|
<https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/ussuri/drivers-all-about.html#driver-removal>`_
|
|
was changed during the Ussuri development cycle to allow unsupported
|
|
drivers to remain in the Cinder source code repository at the discretion
|
|
of the Cinder team (basically, this means the vendor has not explicitly
|
|
declared the driver EOL or the vendor has expressed interest in getting
|
|
the third-party CI system working again). Be aware, however, that
|
|
such drivers are subject to immediate removal if they begin failing
|
|
the general Cinder gating tests.
|
|
|
|
The following drivers were classified as unsupported in the Train
|
|
release and continue as unspported in this release:
|
|
|
|
- IBM FlashSystem drivers: FC and iSCSI
|
|
- ProphetStor drivers: FC and iSCSI
|
|
- Veritas ACCESS iSCSI driver
|
|
- Virtuozzo Storage driver
|
|
|
|
For completeness, here is the list of drivers first marked unsupported
|
|
in the Ussuri release. See the "Deprecation Notes" section of this
|
|
document for details.
|
|
|
|
- Brocade Fibre Channel Zone Manager driver
|
|
- MacroSAN drivers: FC and iSCSI
|
|
- Veritas Clustered NFS driver
|
|
|
|
In order to use an unsupported driver, ``enable_unsupported_driver`` must
|
|
be set to ``True`` in the driver's section in the cinder.conf file. If
|
|
you are the consumer of such a driver, we encourage you to contact the
|
|
vendor to make them aware of your concerns.

|
|
A key aspect of *supported* drivers is that there is a fully functioning
|
|
third-party CI system that reports on all proposed changes to the cinder
|
|
code. However, the fact that there are 'unsupported' drivers at all
|
|
indicates that third-party CI systems are unfortunately not always
|
|
fully functioning. You may consult the report at the following link
|
|
to learn the extent to which a particular driver's CI system is reporting
|
|
on the development branch of cinder:
