openstack/manila — Week of 2026-08-22

New driver. The headline landing is a full Lustre share driver — roughly 2,300 lines added in a single change (996907) — with a follow-up opening the LNET port for Lustre share mounting. This gives Manila first-class support for Lustre as a share backend.

NetApp backend. Substantial work continued on the NetApp driver: a large patch implementing the remaining ZAPI-to-REST gaps, and a switch to default HTTPS transport with a new cert-verify option. Reliability fixes covered persisting share server details when Barbican is unreachable, two patches addressing a TypeError in the encryption key ref compatibility check, and a fix for InvalidShareType during create_share_from_snapshot.

API surface. A new share capability, snapshot_inherit_share_access_support, was implemented, letting drivers advertise whether snapshots inherit their parent share's access rules. Separately, migration_get_progress was corrected to use GET at microversion 2.98.

Stability. A small but notable fix resolves a workers=None crash when running under the cotyledon service backend.
