[Openstack] How to apply the changes cinder.conf file

Udara,

Devstack does not install services, but rather uses "screen" to manage the 
OpenStack processes.
For an example how to restart a specific process, see See 
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/blogs/8160eff1-dedf-408e-9395-9dffeb68749f/entry/working_with_screens_to_restart_service_of_devstack_based_openstack?lang=en

For Cinder, just restart any screen with the prefix of "c-*"

Regards,

Hi Bill,

I tried to restart the above services. However those services are not 
available in my setup.
However I tried executing the following script. Is it a valid workaround 
to get the changes applied?

/opt/stack/cinder/bin/cinder-volume --config-file /etc/cinder/cinder.conf 
> /var/log/nova/cinder-volume.log 2>&1 &

Hi Udara,
Your right - every time you change a config file value, you need to 
restart the services using that file (in the case of cinder.conf, restart 
all of the cinder services):

$ sudo service cinder-volume restart
$ sudo service cinder-api restart
$ sudo service cinder-scheduler restart

Hi,

I have setup Openstack(folsom) installed by DevStack. I did some 
configuration changes in cinder.conf file. 

volume_clear=none

# Size in MiB to wipe at start of old volumes. 0 => all
# (integer value)
#volume_clear_size=0
volume_clear_size=100


How can I apply them to the running Openstack setup.I don't think just by 
editing the file will not make the changes visible in the running setup.
