Does that mean that we will add to driver functionality doc table miltipathing or A/A explicitly in the future?

This is something I will add to PTG discussion. We need to come up with what certifying really means and push people to work on this.

The support is merged in Cinder for active/active, but the hold up now has been
getting Cinder driver maintainers to certify their drivers and storage devices
will work correctly when running in that configuration.

I seem to recall some work being done with the Ceph/RBD driver, but I don't
believe anything has merged for any drivers to enable that.
