Yoga Series Release Notes

8.3.0

Prelude

The Yoga release of the python-cinderclient supports Block Storage API version 3 through microversion 3.68. (The maximum microversion of the Block Storage API in the Yoga release is 3.68.)

New Features

  • A new cinder reimage command and related python API binding has been added which allows a user to replace the current content of a specified volume with the data of a specified image supplied by the Image service (Glance). (Note that this is a destructive action, that is, all data currently contained in the volume is destroyed when the volume is re-imaged.) This feature requires Block Storage API microversion 3.68 or greater.

8.1.0

Prelude

The Xena release of the python-cinderclient supports Block Storage API version 3 through microversion 3.66. (The maximum microversion of the Block Storage API in the Xena release is 3.66.)

New Features

  • Supports Block Storage API version 3.65, which displays a boolean consumes_quota field on volume and snapshot detail responses and which allows filtering volume and snapshot list responses using the standard --filters [<key=value> [<key=value> ...]] option to the cinder list or cinder snapshot-list commands.

    Filtering by this field may not always be possible in a cloud. Use the cinder list-filters command to see what filters are available in the cloud you are using.

Upgrade Notes

  • The python-cinderclient no longer supports version 2 of the Block Storage API. The last version of the python-cinderclient supporting that API is the 7.x series.
