Description Andrew Robinson 2018-04-19 21:14:00 UTC
Description of problem:

A customer would like the ability to specify the name of the snapshots created by the snap_scheduler.py script. Currently, the script is run like this:

# snap_scheduler.py add "Job Name" "Schedule" "Volume Name"

The customer suggests a syntax such as this:

# snap_scheduler.py add "Job Name" "Schedule" "Volume Name" "Snapshot Name"

The customer also suggested preventing the time stamp from being added to the name:

# snap_scheduler.py add "Job Name" "Schedule" "Volume Name" "Snapshot Name" no-timestamp

The customer wants control over the name of the snapshots to make identifying them easier for scripts that mount the snapshots.

This will be addressed in glusterd2, as we are rewriting snapshot scheduler in gd2 and only fixing major issues in 3.x series. The progress can be tracked the progress using the issue https://github.com/gluster/glusterd2/issues/1098.
