Matt and I reviewed this together in a private video conference.
Here are my notes from that meeting:
-------
metadata service?
- config disk or known link local address
- deployment specific
- could remove requirement for -oo server-id later
openstack volume show
- sleep in the loop
- should timeout if the volume takes too long to become available
- can stay in creating state forever
delete cinder volume
- update volume_ids incrementally
image properties
- only set them on the first disk
atexit
- probably need to wait for detach to complete
how do we identify which volumes belong to a guest to CFME?
- volume (not image) metadata property?
- need an ID from CFME
- volume order (bootindex)
