Creating a special kind of automatically created volume seems like a pretty significant change, and since it's only for such a specific purpose I think there needs to be a lot more discussion about requirements and alternatives. How *exactly* would CTDB use this, what characteristics must it have, why can't CTDB use a standard manually created volume, how else might CTDB solve those problems, and what other things might benefit from this feature if it were defined a bit differently? Currently we are planning to fix the issue by having the proper hooks itself, instead of creating a 'meta' volume. |
