Symptômes

Implementing OpenStack Cinder in RedHat Enterprise 10 Environment.

Using the VNX Cinder Driver with Red Hat OpenStack Platform 10 results in "Failed to initialize driver" errors.

Cause

With Red Hat OpenStack Platform 10, the Dell EMC storops (https://github.com/emc-openstack/storops) library must be installed on each host utilizing the VNX Cinder Driver. Storops is created and maintained by Dell EMC and is a Python library used to send commands to the VNX system. The storops library is not included in a basic installation of Red Hat OpenStack Platform 10.

Résolution

Install storops on each OpenStack host that is using the VNX Cinder driver.

Refer to the latest release with the "noarch" package from this location: https://github.com/emc-openstack/storops/releases.
 
Alternatively, the pip package manager may be used (ex. "pip install storops"). See the Dell EMC GitHub page for more details on installing storops: https://github.com/emc-openstack/storops
