<div>Hi,<br>
</div>
<p>Essentially a snapshot of a volume, which was taken when the
volume had nfs.ganesha option enabled, has a export.conf file for
it. This file will be restored to the Ganesha Export Directory,
which has been moved to the shared storage. Currently we fail the
snapshot restore in a scenario, where the snapshot has the said
conf file, but the shared storage is not available. This behaviour
is expected. However there is no option for the user to proceed
with the snapshot at this point in time.</p>
<p>We will introduce a force option for snapshot restore, which will
enable the user to restore this particular snapshot in the above
explained scenario, thereby abandoning the export.conf. The reason
for introducing the force option is to make the user explicitly
ask for the saved export.conf to be abandoned in such a scenario.</p>
<p>Example of proposed option in restore cli:<br>
gluster snapshot restore [force]</p>
