OpenStack Cinder now has a wide variety of options for moving and copying storage volumes, but it's not always clear which API calls are designed for which use cases.

We'll focus on both single and multi-site options for both end users and OpenStack administrators, so attendees should find ways to sleep easier at night knowing how to look after their data.
