Welcome to the Victoria release of the OpenStack Block Storage service
(cinder). With this release, the Block Storage API version 3 has reached
microversion **3.62**. The cinder team would like to bring the following
points to your attention. Details may be found below.
* Microversion 3.61 adds the ``cluster_name`` attribute to the volume
detail response when called in an administrative context.
* Microversion 3.62 adds API calls to manage the default volume type
for a specific project. See the `Default volume types (default-types)
<https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/block-storage/v3/#default-volume-types-default-types>`_
section of the
`Block Storage API v3 Reference
<https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/block-storage/v3/>`_
for more information.
* The handling of the default volume type for a cinder installation
has been improved in this release.
* The cinder backup service has added support for the popular Zstandard
compression algorithm. (The default is the venerable Deflate (zlib)
algorithm.)
* Many backend storage drivers have added features and fixed bugs.
