@koushik-das - Our use case is to emulate a snapshot revert with Ceph by
using createVolume sourced from a snapshot, then detaching and reattach the
root volume of a VM with device id of 0.
This preserves the previous volume history and allows the user to switch
back and forth between different snapshots.
