Sam,
Yes, definitely.  Do you want to volunteer? :)

Note that the iSCSI attach code will hopefully be refactored soon:

Thanks,

Subject:	[openstack-dev] [Cinder] Backups using iscsi based drivers



Hi,

Was wondering if there was any plans to get some backup support for iscsi
based drivers?

For a generic solution we could do it in a similar fashion to how copy to
image works by attaching the iscsi device to the host running cinder-backup
then copy it off to swift.

What do people think?

Cheers,
Sam
