This was discussed in this openstack-dev thread [1]. Basically, there is more demand for RBD multi-site replication as compared to RBD multi-attach and the two features would be mutually exclusive. Therefore, RBD multi-attach is disabled for now until a future OpenStack release. What's your use-case for Cinder multi-attach? I've heard examples like putting OCFS2 on the volume to share a filesystem, but for that example I would just point out the Manila OpenStack service.
