Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/cinder/+spec/cinder-backup-volume-metadata-support. Description: Creating this blueprint to cover the work required for https://bugs.launchpad.net/cinder/+bug/1137908 which will require modifications to all existing ceph backup drivers (Ceph, Swift and TSM). A bit more info: Following dicussions with the cinder team there are mixed opinions about how best to do this. To resolve this lets be clear on the objective. When we backup a volume in cinder we want to be able to revover that volume even if the database and/or cinder cluster go offline, perhaps by restoring to a new cloud. In order to facilitate this it would be necessary to backup all required metadata to rebuild an equivalent volume. What is proposed here is to have a versioned interface that each backup driver can call to retrieve a 'complete' set of metadata required to reconstruct a volume following total loss of the original metadata.
