Jay S. Bryant 0395353c4b Move config-reference to configuration
It was discovered today that the 'config-reference' directory
was supposed to have been renamed to 'configuration'.  The doc
team was expecting it to be at that location so that they could
automatically link to it from contributor/index.html .

This patch just moves the directory.  I am going to be submitting
a subsequent patch that properly sets out the framework for the
additional directories so that we don't have addition problems
in the future.

Swift backup driver

The backup driver for the swift back end performs a volume backup to an object storage system.

To enable the swift backup driver, include the following option in the cinder.conf file:

backup_driver = cinder.backup.drivers.swift

The following configuration options are available for the Swift back-end backup driver.

To enable the swift backup driver for 1.0, 2.0, or 3.0 authentication version, specify 1, 2, or 3 correspondingly. For example:

backup_swift_auth_version = 2

In addition, the 2.0 authentication system requires the definition of the backup_swift_tenant setting:

backup_swift_tenant = <None>

This example shows the default options for the Swift back-end backup driver.

backup_swift_url = http://localhost:8080/v1/AUTH_
backup_swift_auth_url = http://localhost:5000/v3
backup_swift_auth = per_user
backup_swift_auth_version = 1
backup_swift_user = <None>
backup_swift_user_domain = <None>
backup_swift_key = <None>
backup_swift_container = volumebackups
backup_swift_object_size = 52428800
backup_swift_project = <None>
backup_swift_project_domain = <None>
backup_swift_retry_attempts = 3
backup_swift_retry_backoff = 2
backup_compression_algorithm = zlib
