Hi everyone,

At last IRC meeting
<http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/manila/2015/manila.2015-05-14-15.00.log.html>
was
raised following question:

"Whether Manila should allow us to create shares from snapshots with
different share networks or not?"

What do users/admins expect in that case?

For the moment Manila restricts creation of shares from snapshot with share
network that is different than parent's.

>From user point of view, he may want to copy share and use its copy in
different network and it is valid case.

>From developer point of view, he will be forced to rework logic of share
servers creation for driver he maintains.

Also, how many back-ends are able to support such feature?

Regards,
Valeriy Ponomaryov
