Hello Moderators, We maintain a substantial body of open-source Ansible code (certified by Red Hat as a collection) for IBM Storage Virtualize, which we believe could directly benefit the Cinder driver roadmap. I’d like to understand whether it is technically and architecturally acceptable to invoke Ansible scripts from within a vendor-specific Cinder driver. Specifically: * Are there any guidelines or constraints on integrating external automation tools (like Ansible) within a Cinder driver implementation? * Is there any official documentation on the acceptance of such cross-language or framework integrations (e.g., calling Ansible from Python)? Your guidance would be greatly appreciated to ensure any contributions align with community standards and best practices. Thank you! Sumit K Gupta sumit.gupta16@ibm.com Senior Storage Leader, IBM
