Description
Cinder is a Block Storage service for OpenStack. It's designed to present storage resources to end users that can be consumed by the OpenStack Compute Project (Nova). This is done through the use of either a reference implementation (LVM) or plugin drivers for other storage. The short description of Cinder is that it virtualizes the management of block storage devices and provides end users with a self service API to request and consume those resources without requiring any knowledge of where their storage is actually deployed or on what type of device.
Documentation
For a quick overview of the Cinder project's organization, deliverables, and processes, take a look at our Getting Started page.
See https://docs.openstack.org/cinder for the official cinder documentation.
Core Team
See current members.
Project Meetings
See Meetings/Cinder.
Getting in Touch
We use the openstack-discuss@lists.openstack.org mailing list for discussions using subjects with the prefix "[cinder]".
- Mailing list archive: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-discuss/
- For discussions prior to Mon Nov 19 00:04:26 UTC 2018, see the old "dev list" archive: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/
We also hang out on IRC in #openstack-cinder ... you can find out where (that is, which IRC network we use) and get IRC tips in the OpenStack contributor guide.
- IRC logs are available in: http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/irclogs/#openstack-cinder/

Sample cinder.conf
The cinder.conf.sample is no longer maintained and tested in the source tree. Currently you can obtain a copy by running the command 'tox -e genconfig' in a cloned version of the Cinder project and then look in etc/cinder/ for the cinder.conf.sample file.
The newly generated file will have all options in the Cinder project, driver options included.
Additionally, the generated file is available in the Cinder documentation: https://docs.openstack.org/cinder/latest/configuration/block-storage/samples/cinder.conf.html
