Ability to create more than one volume at the same time

Summary

Currently creating multiple volumes in a single request is not supported.

Release Date

Cinder icehouse-3

Rationale

Creating multiple volumes will ehnance the user workload for repeatitive actions for large volume creation. The goal of the blueprint is to allow the creation of more volumes at the same time (of sequentially) from the cinder create command.

User Stories

As a Openstack End User I want to create multiple volumes at the same time using OpenStack CLI & REST interface.

As a Openstack End User I want to create multiple volumes at the same time using OpenStack Dashboard.

Design

Update python-cinder client to accept new optional input parameter "--num-volumes" which will iterate through a loop to create the multiple volumes.
