As far as RBD is concerned you could backup the volumes to a different pool (or even a different cluster), as explained here: https://ceph.com/dev-notes/incremental-snapshots-with-rbd/ ie. doing a deep copy first and then copying incremental snapshots above that. Openstack cinder , for eg., supports this functionality in form of *backups* allowing backups to a different pool or cluster. > > Thanks & Regards > Somnath > > > ________________________________ > > PLEASE NOTE: The information contained in this electronic mail message is intended only for the use of the designated recipient(s) named above.
