nova/releasenotes/notes/add-storpool-libvirt-driver-8dfa78f46f58b034.yaml
Peter Penchev b100eb05ab Add the Nova libvirt StorPool attachment driver.
StorPool is distributed data storage software running on standard x86
servers.  StorPool aggregates the performance and capacity of all drives
into a shared pool of storage distributed among the servers.  Within
this storage pool the user creates thin-provisioned volumes that are
exposed to the clients as block devices.  StorPool consists of two parts
wrapped in one package - a server and a client.  The StorPool server
allows a hypervisor to act as a storage node, while the StorPool client
allows a hypervisor node to access the storage pool and act as a compute
node.  In OpenStack terms the StorPool solution allows each hypervisor
node to be both a storage and a compute node simultaneously.

This driver allows StorPool volumes defined in Cinder to be attached as
additional disks to a virtual machine.
