RFE: Ability to specify a Protection Policy #67

Closed jamespohl closed 6 years ago

jamespohl commented 7 years ago

In our environment we have a filer back up volumes to another filer.

When a docker volume is created with the plugin, the volume is not backed up automatically.

It would be nice to have the ability to specify/create the backup relationship automatically.

This hasn't been well-documented yet, but you can specify a snapshot policy for any volume created through the nDVP by specifying a 'snapshotPolicy' in your create command.

For example: docker volume create -d netapp --name=vol -o snapshotPolicy=default

Does that suffice for your use case? Or were you looking for something more?

My thought was to have the ability for protection policy set up to replicate to another filer. So, the volume is created and mounted on filer1, then a protection policy is set up to replicate to the backup cluster.
