[GitHub] cloudstack pull request #2039: rbd: Use libvirt to create new volumes and no...

GitHub user wido opened a pull request:

    https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/2039

    rbd: Use libvirt to create new volumes and not rados-java

    Since libvirt 1.2.2 libvirt will properly create volumes
    using RBD format 2.
    
    We can use libvirt to creates the volumes which strips a bit of
    code from the CloudStack Agent's responsbility.
    
    RBD format 2 is already used by all volumes created by CloudStack.
    
    This format is the most recent format of RBD and is still actively
    being developed.
    
    This removes the support for Ubuntu 12.04 as that does not have the
    proper libvirt version available.
