Gsoc proposal on Configuring backup storage in ovirt

Hello, I have created the draft proposal recently on Configuring backup storage in ovirt.Here is the link to view https://docs.google.com/document/d/1orulgCTY1K6jUmomCIgZHA0g9xsWWUqttj0c1R0d... . Any suggestion or comments are welcome. Thanks, Shubham Dubey

Hi Shubham, The proposal looks very impressive, good job! I got a question regarding what you mentioned about the "Online Virtual Drive Resize" feature. Did you refer to the ovirt sparsify feature: http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/virt-sparsify/ or the online-virtual-drive-resize feature: http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/online-virt... both should be supported in oVirt 4.1 IINM Regarding the synopsis section which you mentioned the supported types of storage domains, please also add Ceph as part of the block Storage Domains. oVirt 3.6 should supports it through Cinder.

hello, I was mentioning about the http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/online-virt... . since it was written in the docs that shrinking drive is not supported yet hence I have decided to work on that.But if it is already supported in 4.1v then I think I need to remove them from my proposal.:).

Nice job, Shubham :) I added some suggestions to your document. Do you have any plans for UI changes? In your examples, I only saw REST API calls. Best wishes, Greg On Sun, Mar 26, 2017 at 4:38 AM, shubham dubey <sdubey504@gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks for reviewing the proposal.:) I was not sure if significant changes need to be done in UI that’s why I haven't mentioned that in my proposal.But I will discuss about that with Maor and if it is needed then I will also include that.

Thanks for your help Greg :) The initial plan will be to start with the REST changes and depends on the progress there we will see what we can achieve in the UI also. Regarding the GUI changes: The changes I was thinking about is to add a checkbox indicating whether a storage domain is configured as backup or not which will be placed in the advanced parameters under the "wipe after delete" checkbox. Regarding the presentation of this attribute, it will be discussed based on the progress of the feature. Shubham and I should have a meeting this week where we will focus in more detail about the tasks and the schedule which will probably be updated in the doc.
