Feature Request: Trigger snapshots in parallel
Opened this issue · 4 comments
I have added backup annotations to 5 PVCs in my cluster, and it seems that right now snapshots are triggered one at a time, and one must complete before the next one is started. Can we have all 5 start at the same time?
Also as an aside, it would be nice if I could trigger snapshots are a certain time, like cron based snapshotting, so that volumes in a distributed system would get snapshotted as close to the same time as possible.
They could be done at the same time, I think there isn't any particular reason why they shouldn't be.
For snapshotting volumes at the same time, I wonder whether we shouldn't introduce some kind of grouping concept, especially if based on the SnapshoRule third party object. We could just say, "great these 4 disks as a group" and snapshot and expire them at the same time.
Sure that would be great! Some people might still want to control the time of day that snapshots are triggered to try and minimize performance impact.
+1 for snapshot grouping!
We have bunch of ElasticSearch disks that we would to backup/expire as a group.
can we res this? it would be great.
