Bug Description
There is a bug when connecting to Cinder volumes over iSCSI with XenAPI where a tapdisk is not correctly spawned. This has been fixed in https:/
The impact of this is that, without the fix, XAPI is expecting a tapdisk to be spawned, but the Storage Manager does not spawn one. As such, the VM will not be able to connect to this Cinder volume, and may connect to a different volume on the same host.
The correct fix in Nova is to emulate the above commit for users of XenServer 6.5; i.e. set the backend-kind=vbd. This will ensure that the storage manager spawns a tapdisk, and that it can be attached in the correct way
