Hi Michal,
Thank you for explaining!
I could understand the mechanism of cinder-backup.
If you're able to reproduce a scenario that fails these assumptions,
please file a bug report and we'll be happy to investigate and provide
a fix.
Sure.
But, according to your explanation, my assumptions won't be realized.

Hi Cinder devs,
I have a question about cinder.
Can I run cinder-volume and cinder-backup on a same host when I using
iscsi backend?
I afraid that iscsi operations will be conflicted between cinder-
volume and cinder-backup.
In my understanding, iscsi operations are serialized for each
individual process.
But these could be raced between processes.
e.g.(Caution: This is just a forecast.)
If cinder-backup execute "multipath -r" while cinder-volume is
terminating connection,
a multipath garbage will remain unexpectedly.
Hi,
Before Mitaka it was *required* to place cinder-volume and cinder-
backup on the same node. As both services shared same file lock
directory, it was safe. In fact cinder-backup simply imported cinder-
volume code.
Since Mitaka cinder-backup doesn't do any iSCSI operations directly and
attaches volumes by calling cinder-volume over RPC. This means that
it's possible to place cinder-backup on other node than cinder-volume,
but it's still totally safe to place them together.
If you're able to reproduce a scenario that fails these assumptions,
please file a bug report and we'll be happy to investigate and provide
a fix.
Thanks,
Michal
