BTW, this is also an end user visible change as the VMs would see the disk move 
from /dev/vda to /dev/sda. Depending on how the VMs are configured, this may 
cause issues also for the end user.

Subject: [Openstack-operators] Converting existing instances from virtio-blk to 
virtio-scsi

Hi,

We currently have a private cloud running old instances using the virtio-blk 
driver and new instances using the virtio-scsi driver. We would like to convert 
all our existing instances to virtio-scsi but there doesn’t appear to be an 
official way to do this. Can I modify this in the openstack database? What 
parameters would I need to change? Is there an easier, less likely to break 
everything way?
