Volume back up service per backend
The current design for volume backup does not take full advantage of the messaging infrastructure and will site issues going forward in scalability, maintenance and enhancement. New features will be very difficult to be implemented if requires a support in volume backup. The service and manager level functionality is not properly isolated and so manager seems to be handling request routing part which is not required. All the request handling part related to a particular backend is done in the back up manager which ideally should be routed by using the messaging infrastructure. This needs a change in back up manager, service level components to support proper message handling. This spec targets the needed changes.
The cinder spec contains details about problem and approaches to solve it.
