We would need to review this feature to ensure it provides equivalent functionality first.

If it does, great, we can look at reverting and enabling this cinder functionality.

Subject: [Starlingx-discuss] [StarlingX] Use Cinder generic image cache to replace raw caching

 

Hi all,

 

This email is about Raw caching function in StarlingX. This feature is to cache an image in backend storage like Ceph when we first create a volume in this backend storage.

 

In fact, Cinder upstream has already had a similar function in Pike release. https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/cinder-specs/specs/liberty/image-volume-cache.html

So I want to revert Raw caching function in StarlingX, and use Cinder generic image cache instead.

The problem is that we need to update Cinder config in StarlingX. Any comments?

 

Best wishes

Lisa
