Hi libvirt devs! Sheepdog have ability to specify number of copies (full replica or erasure) for each vdi when it created, Now xml looks like: <volume> <name>{VDI_NAME}</name> <key>sheep/{VDI_NAME}</key> <source></source> <allocation unit="G">{VDI_SIZE}</allocation> <capacity unit="G">{VDI_SIZE}</capacity> <target> <path>sheepdog:{VDI_NAME}</path> <format type='unknown'/> <permissions> <mode>00</mode> <owner>0</owner> <group>0</group> </permissions> </target> </volume> in case of erasure we need to specify number of strips and number of parity strips. In case of copies - number of copies. How the best encode this in xml? P.S. I van to create patch for libvirt to allow this, but stuck at xml definition. -- Vasiliy Tolstov, e-mail: v.tolstov(a)selfip.ru
