snapshot atomicity

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I've not used ceph snapshots before. The documentation says that the rbd device should not be in use before creating a snapshot. Does this mean that creating a snapshot is not an atomic operation? I'm happy with a crash consistent filesystem if that's all the warning is about.

If it is atomic, can you create multiple snapshots as an atomic operation? The use case for this would be a database spread across multiple volumes, eg database on one rbd, logfiles on another.

Thanks
