Add volume type support
Add multiple backend support to Manila. User will be able to list enabled share services and info about them - host on which share service is running, backend name, service status (UP or DOWN). Using this data user will be able to define 'types' (volume types), which is an abstraction over backend name. User will specify volume type on share creation, and this way will be able to choose particular backend (or share service) for a share.

(bswartz) I would like to see a little more detail here but the general direction is approved. When in doubt I would like to follow the cinder implementation as closely as possible. Where not possible we should bring up the issues for discussion with the core team.
