Description Raghavendra Talur 2017-11-17 07:36:08 UTC 
Description of problem:
It would be required for upcoming CNS features that existing files on hosting volume be exported as a gluster block device. There should be an option to specify file path instead of providing the size of the block volume in a gluster-block create command. This way we can import existing files.


In such a case, it is also required that gluster-block provides a mechanism to only unexport a block volume without deleting the file from hosting volume.
