Hi Liang, Can you explain the relationship to horizon. The patches address an issue where cinder still believes the volume is attached to a VM but the VM no longer exists. II am not seeing the horizon connection here.

This patch resolves the problem that a volume is attached to a non-existed VM and can't be deleted. I talked with Openstack/Cinder community. As Cinder uses new attach/detach workflow, now this problem doesn't exist. Users can use "cinder attachment-list" to list all the attachments, and then delete them. After that, the volume can be deleted. Fang Liang also did such test, it works. So I think we can abandon this patch. Any objections? Best wishes Lisa
