Gorka Eguileor 8fab1a01cb Fix FC: Only scan connected HBAs
Current OS-Brick FC code always scans all present HBAs, which could
unintentionally add unwanted devices, for example in the following
environment:

    +-------+     +------+   +-----------------+
    | host5 +-----+      +---+ Port.A   VNX    |
    |       |     | FCSW +---+ Port.B          |
    | host6 +-----+      |   +-----------------+
    |       |     +------+
    |       |     +------+
    | host7 +-----+      |   +-----------------+
    |       |     | FCSW +---+ Port.C  XtremIO |
    | host8 +-----+      +---+ Port.D          |
    +-------+     +------+   +-----------------+

This patch limits what HBAs get scanned:

- If we have an initiator map, we only scan on the HBAs that are there
- If we are in the single WWNN for all ports case we only scan HBAs that
  are connected
- If we can't do any better we scan all HBAs with wildcards

Latest Version

Downloads

OpenStack Cinder brick library for managing local volume attaches

Features

  • Discovery of volumes being attached to a host for many transport protocols.
  • Removal of volumes from a host.

Hacking

Hacking on brick requires python-gdbm (for Debian derived distributions), Python 2.7 and Python 3.4. A recent tox is required, as is a recent virtualenv (13.1.0 or newer).

If "tox -e py34" fails with the error "db type could not be determined", remove the .testrepository/ directory and then run "tox -e py34".
