Hi all,

I'm currently looking into extending Nova API to allow on-demand VM quiescing with the ultimate goal being improved Cinder snapshot creation. The spec is undergoing review at the moment and I was wondering if someone from Cinder would be kind enough to look it over and give their thoughts on it:

Thanks in advance.

Hi Marek, I'm really glad to hear somebody will be working on this functionality. I have reviewed the spec and Cinder (and probably anyone using the feature) needs a REST API to query the current state of the quiesce, unless the quiesce call is actually synchronous and doesn't return until it's done. Cheers, Gorka.
