OpenStack(Icehouse) cinder cannot find vipr.fc

Hi,

I am trying to use the vipr cinder plugin for openstack Icehouse: https://github.com/emcvipr/controller-openstack-cinder/blob/master/README.md

I have a ViPR2.2SP1, Icehouse and the vipr installed correctly.

Now, cinder-volume service cannot start with following error. How can I solve it?

Any info is welcome.

[root@opst01 emc]# service openstack-cinder-volume restart

Stopping openstack-cinder-volume:                          [FAILED]

Starting openstack-cinder-volume:                          [  OK  ]

but actually failed. and I can see in /var/log/cinder/volume.log

In viewpoint of python, I can load this vipr.fc. Another error is seen, but I believe it is not a problem.
