Add rbd support to cinder brick
Registered by
Edward Hope-Morley
Brick supports locally attaching cinder iscsi volumes but does not provde a way to write to rbd volumes. RBD volumes would not be 'attached' per se but we could provide some sort of pseudo connector allowing read/write to rbd volumes. If needs be, we could also export the rbd as an iscsi target using the recently added support for rbd in tgt.
