Understandable concern.
FWIW I’ve used rbd-mirror to move thousands of volumes between clusters with
zero clobbers.

Thanks for clearing that up, Jason.

Hi Anthony,
A one-way mirror suits fine in my case (the old cluster will be
dismantled in mean time) so I guess a single rbd-mirror daemon should
suffice.
The pool consists of OpenStack Cinder volumes containing a UUID (i.e.
volume-ca69183a-9601-11ea-8e82-63973ea94e82 and such). The change of

When you set up the rbd-mirror daemons with each others’ configs, and initiate
mirroring of a volume, the destination will create the volume in the
destination cluster and pull over data.
Hopefully you’re creating unique volume names so there won’t be conflicts, but
that said if the destinati
The pool names in both clusters have to be identical in addition to
the required journal feature. It’s probably an advantage if the
existing pool in the second cluster has a different name. In that case
you can set up the mirror for a new pool without affecting the other
pool and after mirr
As a matter of my experience, rbd-mirror only copy the images with
journaling feature of clusterA to clusterB. It doesn't influence the other
images in the pool of clusterB. You'd better have a test on it.
