Cinder FC SAN Zone/Access Control Manager
Fibre Channel block storage support was added in Grizzly release but there is no support for automated SAN zoning (FC SANs are either pre-zoned or open-zoned). Pre-zoning introduces management complexity in cloud orchestration and using no zoning is the least desirable zoning option because it allows devices to have unrestricted access on the fabric and causes RSCN storms.
The purpose of this blueprint is to add support for automated FC SAN zone/access control management in Cinder for FC volumes. Proposed FibreChannelZon
