Fixed In Version: ceph-16.1.0-486.el8cp
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
.RBD images can be imported instantaneously With the `rbd import` command, the new image becomes available for use only after it is fully populated. With this release, the image live-migration feature is extended to support external data sources and can be used as an alternative to `rbd import`. The new image can be linked to local files, remote files served over HTTP(S) or remote Amazon S3-compatible buckets in `raw`, `qcow` or `qcow2` formats and becomes available for use immediately. The image is populated as a background operation which can be run while it is in active use.
