Re: [Engine-devel] [vdsm] RFC: New Storage API

> 1) Can you provide more info on why there is a exception for 'lvm > based > block domain'. Its not coming out clearly. File based domains are responsible for syncing up object manipulation (creation\deletion) The backend is responsible for making sure it all works either by having a single writer (NFS) or having it's own locking mechanism (gluster). In our LVM based domains VDSM is responsible for basic object manipulation. The current design uses an approach where there is a single host responsible for object creation\deleteion it is the SRM\SDM\SPM\S?M. If we ever find a way to make it fully clustered without a big hit in performance the S?M requirement will be removed form that type of domain.
