Andreas Jaeger 2d44b2b36d Prepare for Sphinx 1.5
The new sphinx version introduces some changes that break build:

* Warns if code cannot be parsed for highlighting. Fix the code so
  that it can be parsed, this includes uncommenting "..." lines.
  Note that not every config file is an ini-file.
  Also, the parser seems to have bugs and cannot parse all files.
  Fix mysql ini file and enable the parameter, see
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/innodb-parameters.html#sysvar_innodb_file_per_table
* :option: works only with declared options, replace useage with
  simple ``.

This change only handles a few files, more to come later.

Manage shares
=============
A share is provided by file storage. You can give access to a share to
instances. To create and manage shares, use ``manila`` client commands.
Migrate a share
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As an administrator, you can migrate a share with its data from one
location to another in a manner that is transparent to users and
workloads.
Possible use cases for data migration include:
- Bring down a physical storage device for maintenance without
disrupting workloads.
- Modify the properties of a share.
- Free up space in a thinly-provisioned back end.
Migrate a share with the :command:`manila migrate` command, as shown in the
following example:
.. code-block:: console
$ manila migrate shareID destinationHost --force-host-copy True|False
In this example, ``--force-host-copy True`` forces the generic
host-based migration mechanism and bypasses any driver optimizations.
``destinationHost`` is in this format ``host#pool`` which includes
destination host and pool.
.. note::
If the user is not an administrator, the migration fails.
