Cinder now has the ability to migrate a volume, This functionality should be exposed through Horizon.
[Lin] Adding notes from Sunitha:

[jpichon 2014.10.14] I will unassign since this has been opened for a while but from the whiteboard history there has been no real activity. It'd be really nice to have this in the dashboard!
[zhenguo 2014.10.15] Sorry for blocking it so long, I will reassign it to me and begin to work on this.
[zhenguo 2014.1018] The term 'host' in Cinder used to refer to 'backend', now that pool is exposed to Cinder scheduler, scheduler starts treating different pools on same backend as different hosts. Migrating volume now has to include pool in 'host' parameter in order to work. but now we can't get pool information through horizon.
