[openstack][cinder] Cinder volume id wont change when retype volume
Hello guys, I have a problem with cinder:
I use cinder volume retype to move my volume to another backend. It worked but when I check on new backend, volume id doest match with id which on Horizon dash board.It expects to have same volume id on Horizon and new backend. I use DellSC and DellPowerstore. Thank you.

I'm guessing you are migrating volumes from the DellSC to the DellPowerstore, in which case the problem is that the DellPowerstore driver doesn't implement the update_migrated_volume method. Here is an extract from [1] on the purpose of that function:
"This method can be used in a generally wide range, but the most common use case covered in this method is to rename the back-end name to the original volume id in your driver to make sure that the back-end still keeps the same id or name as it is before the volume migration"
[1] https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/contributor/migration.html
You might file a bug against the Powerstore driver. This is something that Dell EMC would need to investigate.

Hello. Thank you for your email, I also try to volumes from the DellPowerstore to DellSC then volume id match between Horizon and Dell SC but old volume won't clear on Powerstore, I just informed you. I will investigate and let you know. Thank you. Nguyen Huu Khoi
