NetApp E-series infiniband support for Cinder
Hi All, Just a quick one to see if anybody knows if there is currently any infiniband support for cinder using a NetApp E-Series SAN. I have had a look at: https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/queens/configuration/block-storage/drivers... and: https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/rocky/reference/support-matrix.html They seem to suggest that only iSCSI and FC are supported. I just want to make sure before I start trying to do a POC with the E-series and infiniband. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Hi, I don't know about support for infiniband, but the driver support has been dropped in Stein. The release notes [1] state: Support for NetApp E-Series has been removed. The NetApp Unified driver can now only be used with NetApp Clustered Data ONTAP. Regards, Gorka. [1]: https://docs.openstack.org/releasenotes/cinder/stein.html
Hi Gorka, Thanks for that, I'll let the business know that we wont want to be using that. We had planned to move to Stein later this year! Regards, On 21/06/2019 10:11, Gorka Eguileor wrote:

Erlon, Good point. Hadn't thought about the fact that it never did support IB. Jay On 6/24/2019 3:18 PM, Erlon Cruz wrote:
