swill commented on issue #3324: [WIP] Add Datera storage plugin

   I would like to add a little context to this PR and why it is opened against the `4.11` branch.
   
   CloudOps originally developed this plugin for Datera, after which point, the Datera version and the CloudOps versions diverged as new functionality was added to both.  This PR is an effort to consolidate the Datera and CloudOps implementations such that a mutual customer (who is running on the 4.11 LTS branch) may leverage the functionality.  
   
   Here is the plan for release:
   - CloudOps will create a PR on this PR to add the functionality that we have developed on top of this.
   - Once the combined functionality has been validated, our mutual customer will pull the working PR on the 4.11 branch into their code base.
   - This PR will then be rebased against the `master` branch for formal inclusion in the upstream ACS code base.
   - Datera will maintain this plugin in the upstream code base going forward.
   
   Let me know if you have any questions or concerns and I will work to facilitate the inclusion of this code upstream.
