Share revert to snapshot

To revert a share to the latest available snapshot, use the manila revert-to-snapshot.

Note

– In order to use this feature, the available backend in your
deployment must have support for it. The list of backends that support
this feature in the manila can be found in the share_back_ends_feature_support_mapping. – This
feature is only available in API version 2.27 and beyond. To create
shares that are revertible, the share type used must contain the
extra-spec revert_to_snapshot_support set to
True. The default value for this is False. –
The revert operation can only be performed to the most recent available
snapshot of the share known to manila. If revert to an earlier snapshot
is desired, later snapshots must explicitly be deleted. In order to
determine the most recent snapshot, the created_at field on
the snapshot object is used.

While reverting, the share is in reverting status and
the snapshot is in restoring status. After a successful
restoration, the share and snapshot states will again be set to
available. If the restoration fails the share will be set
to reverting_error state and the snapshot will be set to
available.

When a replicated share is reverted, the share becomes ready to be
used only when all active replicas have been reverted. All
secondary replicas will remain in out-of-sync state until
they are consistent with the active replicas.

To revert a share to a snapshot, run:

$ manila revert-to-snapshot 14ee8575-aac2-44af-8392-d9c9d344f392
