<div> </div>
<div>I'd thought about moving the zfs specific implementation to something like <br></div>
<div> </div>
<div>xlators/mgmt/glusterd/src/plugins/zfs-specifs-stuffs for the inital go. Could you let me know if this works or in sync with what you'd thought about? <br></div>

<div><div>Hi, <br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div>I tried to go through the patch and find the reason behind the question posted. But could'nt get any concrete details about the same. <br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div>When going through the mail chain, there were mentions of generic snapshot interface. I'd be interested in doing the changes if you guys could fill me with some initial information. Thanks. <br></div>

<div>I did not want to respond to the
question that you'd posed on the zfs snapshot code (about the volume
backend backup) as I am not too familiar with the code and the person
who's coded it is not with us anymore. This was done in bit of a hurry
so it could be that it was just kept for later..<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div>However, Sriram who is cc'd on this email, has been helping us by starting to look at
the gluster code and has expressed an interest in taking the zfs code
changes on. So he can probably dig out an answer to your question.
Sriram, Rajesh had a question on one of the zfs related patches -
(<a href="https://github.com/fractalio/glusterfs/commit/39a163eca338b6da146f72f380237abd4c671db2#commitcomment-18109851">https://github.com/fractalio/glusterfs/commit/39a163eca338b6da146f72f380237abd4c671db2#commitcomment-18109851</a>)<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div>Sriram
is also interested in contributing to the process of creating a
generic snapshot interface in the gluster code which you and Pranith mentioned
above. If this is ok with you all, could you fill him in on what your
thoughts are on that and how he could get started?<br></div>
</div>
<div>Thanks!<br></div>

<div><span> Is there a plan to come up with an interface for snapshot functionality? For example, in handling different types of sockets in gluster all we need to do is to specify which interface we want to use and ib,network-socket,unix-domain sockets all implement the interface. The code doesn't have to assume anything about underlying socket type. Do you guys think it is a worthwhile effort to separate out the logic of interface and the code which uses snapshots? I see quite a few of if (strcmp ("zfs", fstype)) code which can all be removed if we do this. Giving btrfs snapshots in future will be a breeze as well, this way? All we need to do is implementing snapshot interface using btrfs snapshot commands. I am not talking about this patch per se. Just wanted to seek your inputs about future plans for ease of maintaining the feature.</span><br></div>

<div>As I said in my previous mail this is in plan and we will be doing it. But due to other priorities this was not taken in yet.<br></div>
