Hi Rajat,
I retyped all remaining volumes of type "__DEFAULT__" but I still
can't delete that type, apparently it's marked as default somewhere,
but I can't find anything in the database referring to __DEFAULT__
except the cinder.volume_types table. I tried to delete it:
---snip---
controller02:~ # openstack volume type list

This is probably because your cinder package version isn't updated to 15.4.0 (Train)
Your deployment should contain this patch[1] to make it work
To verify, you can run ``cinder-manage --version`` command
But according to cinder I have a different default-type:
---snip---
controller02:~ # cinder type-default
+--------------------------------------+------+-------------+-----------+
| ID | Name | Description | Is_Public |
+--------------------------------------+------+-------------+-----------+
| 5f7f9e7f-a5b4-4061-b228-022d42139467 | hdd | | True |
+--------------------------------------+------+-------------+-----------+
---snip---
How do I get rid of that type now?
Regards,
Eugen
