This patch is part of the docs migration for Cinder. It is more or less a drag and drop of the docs from openstack-manuals admin-guide directory. I needed to change some syntax to work with Cinder's more stringent doc build. Note that the purpose of this patch is just to get the documentation back to an accessible location. Later patches will clean up the organization and content. Change-Id: Ib3f9255e0f9f2ff42a0ee4126607ff319a3d901e

Failed to attach volume after detaching
Problem
Failed to attach a volume after detaching the same volume.
Solution
You must change the device name on the nova-attach command. The VM might not clean up
after a nova-detach
command runs. This example shows how the nova-attach command fails when you use the
vdb, vdc, or vdd device
names:
# ls -al /dev/disk/by-path/
