Block Storage library to use across projects
Currently we have some duplication of code regarding block storage across Compute and the Block Storage service. In addition there are some things that folks see as useful to have in Glance.
This blueprint is intended to offer a common library of block-storage utilities that can be used not only for LVM but also local disk storage across multiple projects. This would be used by Cinder as well as Nova and others.
To start there would be two key pieces:
1. LVM management
Ability to assign disks to a PV
Ability to create VG's
Ability to create LV's
All of the LVM functionality that currently exists in the Cinder/LVM driver would be available at some base level here.
2. Ability to utilize raw/local disks on the system
