This patch includes the Cinder changes needed
to support volume multiple attaches. Nova and
python-cinderclient also need patches associated
to provide support for multiple attachments.
This adds the multiattach flag to volumes. When a
volume is created, a multiattach flag can be set,
which allows a volume to be attached to more than
one Nova instance or host. If the multiattach flag is
not set on a volume, it cannot be attached to more
than one Nova instance or host
Each volume attachment is tracked in a
new volume_attachment table. The attachment id is
the unique identifier for each attachment to an
instance or host.
When a volume is to be detached the attachment
uuid must be passed in to the detach call in
order to determine which attachment should be
removed. Since a volume can be attached to an
instance and a host, the attachment id is used
as the attachment identifier.
