Michał Dulko fc0034b385 Rolling upgrade procedure documentation
One of the requirements to achieve assert:supports-rolling-upgrade TC
tag is to provide a "plan that allows operators to roll out new code to
subsets of services, eliminating the need to restart all services on new
code simultaneously".

This commit documents such rolling upgrade procedure in the devref,
which is last outstanding requirement for Cinder.

Welcome to Cinder's developer documentation!

Cinder is an OpenStack project to provide "block storage as a service".

  • Component based architecture: Quickly add new behaviors
  • Highly available: Scale to very serious workloads
  • Fault-Tolerant: Isolated processes avoid cascading failures
  • Recoverable: Failures should be easy to diagnose, debug, and rectify
  • Open Standards: Be a reference implementation for a community-driven api

This documentation is generated by the Sphinx toolkit and lives in the source tree. Additional draft and project documentation on Cinder and other components of OpenStack can be found on the OpenStack wiki. Cloud administrators, refer to docs.openstack.org.
