Dinakar,
The driver's create_snapshot function gets a dictionary that describes the
snapshot.  In that dictionary, you have the "volume_name" field that has
the source volume's name: snapshot['volume_name'].  You can get other
details via snapshot['volume'], which is a dictionary containing the
volume's metadata.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
Avishay

            call



Dear all,
        we are in progress of implementing a new driver for cinder
services , we have a scenario where we need volume name for creation of
snapshot. In detail , we designed the driver in such a way that it
communicates with our server through http calls , and now we need the
volume name and other details in create snapshot function , how can we get
those details

Thanks
