  • The parameter ‘manila::backend::cephfs::cephfs_enable_snapshots’ has beendeprecated. Manila’s CephFS driver has changed the default behavior inthe Victoria cycle to always support snapshots, because they are fullysupported in Ceph Nautilus, the minimum version of Ceph supported byManila. Since thecephfs_enable_snapshots config option will be removedin a future release, we recommend that you stop relying on it. Manila’ssnapshots can be disabled by virtue of share type extra specs ifdesired.
