Open Stack

Hi Emma,

I do not claim to be an OpenStack guru, but might know something about
backing up a vCloud.

What proposal did you have in mind? A link would be helpful.

Backing up a step (ha), the existing cinder-backup API is very close to
useless. Backup needs to apply to an active instance. The Nova backup API
is closer, but needs (much) work.

Local storage is a big issue, as at scale we need to extract changed-block
lists. (VMware has an advantage here, for now.)
