hi, Janice
This idea seems to me that is useful to detect the state of
cinder-volume process more quickly, but I feel there is another issue
that if the back-end device go to fail you still
can't keep cloud in ha or create volume successfully since the service
is up but device is down.
So, what I want to say is we maybe need to consider to detect and
report the device state priority[1] and then consider to improve
service if we need that.
