Open Stack

Dear all

In our Cloud we have multiple backends for Cinder. One of them is using
the Dell EMC PS Series volume driver

My understanding (reading
https://docs.openstack.org/releasenotes/cinder/ussuri.html) is that the
driver doesn't work anymore in >= Ussuri

A while ago we migrated to Train (using CentOS7 as operating system) and
everything kept working fine.
We are now trying to migrate to CentOS8 (still using Train) and the cinder
volume service for the equallogic backend doesn't work anymore
In the log file I found something like this [*]


We already planned to dismiss that backend (but we planned to do that
before next Openstack update).

Does anyone know if that driver is supposed to work with Train and CentOS8
(and therefore python3) ?

Thanks, Massimo
