[pve-dev] Storage assisted copy feature for Proxmox storage plugin

[Andrei Perapiolkin]

Hi,

Can the honorable community help me find an elegant way for 
volume_import to identify the source volume origin type and name?

I’m investigating this to implement storage-assisted copy (i.e., 
performing the volume copy entirely on the storage side).

My initial assumption was that this could be achieved by defining custom 
volume_export and volume_import functions.
However, may be  there is a better way to  do storage assisted copy.



Best regards,
Andrei Perepiolkin
