Devstack Folsom: attaching volume in HpSanISCSIDriver failed with CliqObjectNotFound

[Gloria Gu]

The cinder code for attaching volume using initialize_connnection in san.py. It just calls assignVolumeToServer ssh cliq. When the server is not available in leftHand, attaching volume failed with CliqObjectNotFound. Currently the server need to be manually added into LeftHand before attach.
The fix is to add the code to make sure the server is in LeftHand before attaching the volume. If the server is not there, create one in LeftHand (createServer).

This is more of enhancement request.

it is regress from Essex, so don't think this is low priority.

Also when createServer, need to consider CHAP and CHAP related parameters

I mean it is a regression in cinder Folsom since it works fine in Essex.
