Hi all,
I have submit a blueprint about deferred deletion for volumes in cinder:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/97034/
The implements of deferred deletion for volumes will introduce some
complexity, to this point, there are different options in stackers. So we would
like to get some feedback from anyone, particularly cloud operators.
Here, I introduce the importance of deferred deletion for volumes
again.
Currently in cinder, calling the API of deleting volume means the volume
will be deleted immediately. If the user specify a wrong volume by mistake, the
data in the volume may be lost forever. To avoid this, I hope to add a deferred
deletion mechanism for volumes. So for a certain amount of time, volumes can be
restored after the user find a misuse of deleting volume.
Moreover, there are deferred deletion implements for instance in nova and
image in glance, I think it is very common feature to protected important
resource.
So I think deferred deletion for volumes is valuable, it seems to me that
should be sufficient.
Welcome your feedback and suggestions!
Thanks.
Zhou Yu
