[pve-devel] [PATCH] zfs : add nexenta api for iscsi lun creation

[Alexandre DERUMIER]

I'll try to see if I can use ssh key to do authentification to rest-api.

seem to be possible with the dbus api (but need nexenta sdk)

so maybe it's possible too with rest api

>>I would prefer to re-add the old code (using ssh keys and password is really clumsy). 

But old code is very slow with a lot of zvols. (ex: listing 300 zvols take around 3min vs 1s). 

because we need extra api call for each zvol, to retrieve infos (parent,size,...). 

with ssh, we can list all zvols info with 1 command. 


(also we can't rename a zvol with api when creating a base image,and we need to do clone tricks, it's a bit ugly too)

I would prefer to re-add the old code (using ssh keys and password is really clumsy).
