Xavier Queralt 2013-12-10 11:48:45 UTC Doc Text Feature: Make live snapshots the default

Reason: The cold snapshots, used by default up until now, needed the instances to be shut down before taking the snapshot. This obviously caused some downtime which is solved by live snapshots. With this improvement the instances can be kept up and running during the whole snapshot process and will be unnoticeable to the user.

Result (if any):
Doc Type Bug Fix Enhancement

Doc Text Feature: Make live snapshots the default

Reason: The cold snapshots, used by default up until now, needed the instances to be shut down before taking the snapshot. This obviously caused some downtime which is solved by live snapshots. With this improvement the instances can be kept up and running during the whole snapshot process and will be unnoticeable to the user.

Result (if any):
Previously, Nova would default to cold snapshots of instances. As a result, instances needed to be shutdown before the snapshot was taken.

With this enhancement, Nova now uses live snapshots by default. Instances remain powered on during snapshots, and the process is unnoticeable to the user.
