Hi ALL, The NBD is one great
project :-)
Currently there are many
Distributed Storages projects such as the Gluster and Ceph are
widely use, but they couldn't support NBD directly. For example,
for the Gluster, if we want to export the volume file as one NBD
block device we must mount the volume first and then use the nbd
utils to export it again, which a little ugly.
To make it more
efficient, we also need one common and generic utils, something
like [1], to support them directly. And good news is that I have a
working code with most basic things @nbd-runner project[2].
It is hosted under the gluster/ currently and I'd like to request
a repository under [3] to host this.
Now the Gluster handler
coding is done, the Ceph and Azure is in progress now.
