Hi Lisa

Subject: Force deletion in Cinder


Hi,

This email is to discuss whether we can abandon 0009-Pike-Rebase-Enhanced-force-deletion.patch in StarlingX/Cinder.
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
