[jira] [Created] (CLOUDSTACK-8369) Extraction of snapshots

Swen Brueseke created CLOUDSTACK-8369:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Extraction of snapshots
                 Key: CLOUDSTACK-8369
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-8369
             Project: CloudStack
          Issue Type: New Feature
      Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
          Components: Snapshot
            Reporter: Swen Brueseke
            Priority: Minor


Right now it is not possible to extract (download) a snapshot (Volume Snapshot). You have to create a new volume of the snapshot to extract it.

CS is creating a symlink in /var/www/html/userdata/ on the secondary storage vm to the vhd file of the volume so it can be downloaded. Similar workflow should work with snapshots, because snapshots are also a vhd files on secondary sotrage.
