SYNOPSIS
========

  nova-volume [options]

DESCRIPTION
===========

nova-volume manages creating, attaching, detaching, and persistent storage.

Persistent storage volumes keep their state independent of instances.  You can
attach to an instance, terminate the instance, spawn a new instance (even
one from a different image) and re-attach the volume with the same data
intact.
