 HP LeftHand/StoreVirtual driver

The HPLeftHandISCSIDriver is based on the Block Storage service (Cinder) plug-in architecture. Volume operations are run by communicating with the HP LeftHand/StoreVirtual system over HTTPS, or SSH connections. HTTPS communications use the hplefthandclient, which is part of the Python standard library.

The HPLeftHandISCSIDriver can be configured to run in one of two possible modes, legacy mode which uses SSH/CLIQ to communicate with the HP LeftHand/StoreVirtual array, or standard mode which uses a new REST client to communicate with the array. No new functionality has been, or will be, supported in legacy mode. For performance improvements and new functionality, the driver must be configured for standard mode, the hplefthandclient must be downloaded, and HP LeftHand/StoreVirtual Operating System software version 11.5 or higher is required on the array. To configure the driver in standard mode, see the section called “HP LeftHand/StoreVirtual REST driver standard mode”. To configure the driver in legacy mode, see the section called “HP LeftHand/StoreVirtual CLIQ driver legacy mode”.

For information about how to manage HP LeftHand/StoreVirtual storage systems, see the HP LeftHand/StoreVirtual user documentation.
