Hello, The initial code for managing volume replication in Cinder is now available as work-in-progress - see https://review.openstack.org/#/c/106718 I expect to remove the work-in-progress early next week. I would like to hold a walk through of the replication feature for Cinder driver owners

The use-case for block migration in Libvirt/QEMU is to allow migration between two different back-ends. This is basically a host based volume migration, ESXi has a similar functionality (storage vMotion), but probably not enabled with OpenStack. Btw, if the Cinder volume driver can migrate the

Hi Murali, Thanks for answering. I think the issues you raised indeed make sense, and important ones. We need to provide backup both for: 1. Volumes 2. VM instances (VM image, VM metadata, and attached volumes) While the Cinder-backup handles (1), and is a very mature service, it does not

Hi Murali, I think the idea to provide enhanced data protection in OpenStack is a great idea, and I have been thinking about backup in OpenStack for a while now. I just not sure a new project is the only way to do. (as disclosure, I contributed code to enable IBM TSM as a Cinder backup driver)
