i would like to Cinder to be able to replicate data between different<br>
backend storages.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>
sometimes your DR site does not have the same storage backend as your<br>
primary site, this is common when you rent the DR site.<br>
the usual workaround for this is restore from backup over the DR<br>
storage, which is painful and slow.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>
ideally i would have a Fast dedicated storage on primary site and a<br>
bunch of lun(s) attached to a box with iscsi+lvm to provide volumes to<br>
compute nodes.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>
if i have storage from the same 'vendor' on both sites that's great!<br>
cinder could offload data replication to vendor's appliance<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>
i know is a pony what i'm asking for, but i would really make a difference<br>
