Cinder backups from vm with attached volume
Sometimes we would like to perform some actions before backup like flushing data to the disk, pausing services.
It can be done only inside the vm. So we want to have possibility to implement a data consistent cinder backup.
For that we should provide information about attached volume. We should set mode as filesystem or mysql but provide additional volume-id parameter. The freezer assumes that the patch provided for backup is located on cinder volume and makes no checks. Then it implements all actions as it is but instead of doing lvm snapshot it does cinder backup.
