[DRBD-user] openstack integration

Dear colleagues,

it seems, I didn't understand exactly Openstack integration procedure
for Linstor.

My configuration is the following:

- there are three storage nodes (stor1, stor2 and stor3), which are both
linstor-controller (only one is active, controlled by pacemaker) and
linstor-satellite
* note hostname 'stor' which is VIP hostname for storage nodes, backed
by pacemaker
- there are three controllers (ctrl1, ctrl2 and ctrl3) where Cinder's
controller part (cinder-api, cinder-scheduler) is installed
* note hostname 'controller' which is VIP hostname for controller nodes,
backed by pacemaker

Linstor is configured and, in manual mode, works as expected, allowing
create and use volumes:

root at stor1:~# linstor sp l

volume_type 'linstor' is registered in Cinder service and set as default
in Cinder's configuration:

Cinder controller (e.g. ctrl1) is configured in the following way:

[DEFAULT]
verbose = true
debug = true
enabled_backends = linstor
my_ip = ctrl1
host = ctrl1
enable_v2_api = false
enable_v3_api = true
state_path = /var/lib/cinder

cinder_internal_tenant_user_id = 5dc3226f0f3e42e7aefed6963442fe17
max_over_subscription_ratio = auto
report_discard_supported = false
image_upload_use_cinder_backend = true
image_upload_use_internal_tenant = true
image_volume_cache_enabled = true
image_volume_cache_max_size_gb = 20
transport_url = rabbit://openstack:xxxxxxx@controller:5672/

[database]
connection = mysql+pymysql://cinder:xxxxxxx@controller/cinder

[linstor]

volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.linstordrv.LinstorDrbdDriver
linstor_default_volume_group_name=DfltRscGrp
linstor_default_uri=linstor://stor
linstor_default_storage_pool_name=drbdpool
linstor_default_resource_size=1
linstor_volume_downsize_factor=4096

[keystone_authtoken]
www_authenticate_uri = http://controller:5000
auth_url = http://controller:5000
memcached_servers = ctrl1:11211,ctrl2:11211,ctrl3:11211
auth_type = password
project_domain_name = default
user_domain_name = default
project_name = service
username = cinder
password = xxxxxxxxx

Note: I didn't download linstor driver from Linbit Openstack Repo.
Documentation says: "The linstor driver will be officially available
starting OpenStack Stein release" while I'm using the Train release and
assume that bundled driver is already ok.

Having this, when I try to create volume using Openstack (openstack
volume create --size 5 --image cirros qqq), I get the error - Cinder
scheduler reports the following:

2020-04-20 02:26:15.631 11946 DEBUG cinder.scheduler.base_filter [] Starting with 0 host(s) get_filtered_objects /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/cinder/scheduler/base_filter.py:95

The questions are:
- it's not clear from the documentation whether it's required to install
cinder-volume service on storage nodes or it's enough to have only
controller part of Cinder (api and scheduler) which call linstor
controller using config's "linstor_default_uri" parameter? (In fact,
nothing bothers me to control linstor storage from controller nodes
manually.)
- whether I missed only this part of configuration or something wrong
with config above?

Thank you.
