    Deepak,

    "transfer-*" is not suitable in this particular case. Usage of
    share networks causes creation of resources, when "transfer" does
    not. Also in this topic we have "creation" of new share based on
    some snapshot.


In the original mail it was said:
"
From user point of view, he may want to copy share and use its copy in different network and it is valid case.
"
So create share from snapshot, then transfer that share to a different tenant , doesn't that work ?


Transferring shares between tenants is not something we've discussed before. The cinder project allows transferring of volumes but its easier for them to implement that feature because they don't have the concepts of share networks and share servers to tie the share to a tenant.

We implemented "public shares" which allows a similar use case where 1 tenant can allow others to read/write to a share and should address many of the same use cases that share transferring would address.

                Isn't this similar to what cinder transfer-* cmds are
                for ? Ability to transfer cinder volume across tenants
                So Manila should be implementing the transfer-* cmds,
                after which admin/user can create a clone
                then initiate a transfer to a diff tenant  ?


            Cinder doesn't seem to have any concept analogous to a
            share network from what I can see; the cinder transfer
            commands are for moving a volume between tenants, which is
            a different thing, I think.


        Yes, cinder doesn't have any eq of share network. But my
        comment was from the functionality perpsective. In cinder
        transfer-* commands are used to transfer ownership of volumes
        across tenants. IIUC the ability in Manila to create a share
        from snapshot and have that share in a different share network
        is eq to creating a share from a snapshot for a different
        tenant, no ? Share networks are typically 1-1 with tenant
        network AFAIK, correct me if i am wrong
