Creating snapshot with multiple volume hosts fails

[andrewsben]

When trying to create a volume snapshot from nova cli the snapshots always go into error status. When checking the logs I see that it has an error stating that it can't find the origin volume.

    Don't send snapshot requests through the scheduler

     * If there is more than one volume host, snapshots need to be
       created on the host that has the volume. Sending the request
       through the scheduler means that the snapshot will sometimes
       be created on the wrong host and fail.
     * Fixes bug 960437
