Explicitly updates the volume state in the Cinder database. Note that this
does not affect whether the volume is actually attached to the Nova compute
host or instance and can result in an unusable volume. Being a database change
only, this has no impact on the true state of the volume and may not match the
actual state. This can render a volume unusable in the case of change to the
'available' state.
