Reproduced the same problem on Ussuri when trying to extend already attached volume as a regular user (a user assigned 'member' role only). Steps to recreate: 1. OpenStack Ussuri, charm: cinder| ussuri/edge | rev. 568 2. create a volume and attach it to a VM 3. as a user with the 'member' role assigned to the project try to extend the volume: `cinder extend 4. the command completes with the rc 0 (all good), `openstack volume show` shows new size but cinder-volume.log contains following error and the volume size from the VM perspective remains unchanged: #### actual 403 error message from nova ##### 2022-11-21 12:53:22.806 1243598 ERROR cinder.compute.nova [req-13d1093e-9a7f-4f03-b505-c985d9d45691 754c0e6eae22488982f393b69e9800a3 d6761dacbb0649189a07a4a1a191a8c0 - 6a4439622e71431c8b96073e33c3b7e1 6a4439622e71431c8b96073e33c3b7e1] Failed to notify nova on events: [{'name': 'volume-extended', 'server_uuid': '3d51176f-281c-4ab3-8631-042ccd407d1d', 'tag': '99c14113-f1ed-4e28-a9b9-54c7eb862db8'}].: novaclient.exceptions.Forbidden: Policy doesn't allow os_compute_api:os-server-external-events:create to be performed.

This is because if the [nova] section in the cinder.conf is missing, the api request to the nova-api from the cinder is executed as the user who initiated the cinder cli call (in the case above its 754c0e6eae22488982f393b69e9800a3) who does not have privileges to execute 'volume-extend'. Adding following [nova] section to the cinder.conf solves the problem: [nova] url = region_name = auth_url = auth_type = password project_domain_name = user_domain_name = project_name = username = nova password = Please provide the fix to the Ussuri version of the charm (ussri channel). Thank you.
