Supported OpenStack Cinder drivers
The table below lists supported OpenStack Cinder drivers and their compatible storage models. Because many drivers support multiple models and firmware versions, only the minimum or recommended versions are listed where applicable. If a firmware or software version is not specified, refer to the linked documentation for compatibility details.
The full list of available storage drivers with a set of available operations on volumes limited by the driver capabilities is reflected in the Cinder Driver Support Matrix.
