The goal is to take some of the lessons learned from the first version of replication that was added in teh Juno release and make it something that is more widely usable by other backend devices. This spec proposes a use of our entire tool-box to implement replication. http://specs.openstack.org/openstack/cinder-specs/specs/liberty/replication_v2.html Capabilities - determine if we can even do anything related to replication Types/Extra-Specs - provide mechanism for vendor-unique custom info and help level out some of the unique aspects among the different back-ends. API Calls - provide some general API calls for things like enable, disable etc
