Background Concepts for Cinder

• Cinder System Architecture
  • Components
• Volume Attach/Detach workflow
  • Attach/Detach Operations are mulit-part commands
  • Attach workflow
    • reserve_volume(self, context, volume)
    • initialize_connection(self, context, volume, connector)
    • attach(self, context, volume, instance_uuid, host_name, mount_point, mode)
  • Detach workflow
    • begin_detaching(self, context, volume)
    • terminate_connection(self, context, volume, connector, force=False)
    • detach(self, context, volume, attachment_id)
• Threading model
  • Yielding the thread in long-running tasks
  • MySQL access and eventlet
• Internationalization
• AMQP and Cinder
  • Cinder RPC Mappings
  • RPC Calls
  • RPC Casts
  • AMQP Broker Load
  • RabbitMQ Gotchas
