Hi, Cinder supports that from Kilo, but Nova needs to support that, [1] And you can see in blueprint progress won't happen even in Newton (=so Ocata is earliest) Also note that this will be Cinder-backend-specific, so you need to check when/if Cinder backend used by you will support it.

My question is if cinder supports volume multi-attach ? Can the same volume be attached to more than one instances ? Should anything be changed in the code level to make it work? Currently I was able to create a new volume with --allow-multiattach option. But it can't be attached to more than one instance. I'm getting an error : "ERROR (BadRequest): Invalid volume: volume '08cf47a0-2f31-422b-a124-192155143abf' status must be 'available'. Currently in 'in-use' (HTTP 400) (Request-ID: req-038db0fa-624d-45a1-a13c-2c5432790019)" Thank you.
