Error when mounting a snapshot

[jimkyndemeyer]

Hey Sam,

Thanks for this project. The performance I'm seeing in the initial testing is really quite incredible :)

I have a 1GB myvol2 created based on your readme successfully mounted as an ext4 disk that Ubunto also reports a 1GB and file writes/reads works perfectly.

I did however run into an error when trying to mount a snapshot of it:

java -jar nbdcli.jar snapshot -v myvol2 -n snapshotvol
> Successfully snapshotted myvol2 as snapshotvol

sudo nbd-client localhost -g -nonetlink -N snapshotvol /dev/nbd4
> Negotiation: ..size = 235626205MB
> bs=512, sz=247071983730176 bytes

So size seems off here on the snapshot? Then trying to mount gives:

sudo mount /dev/nbd4 tmp-snapshotted/
> mount: /home/jimmeyer/IdeaProjects/nbd/target/tmp-snapshotted: can't read superblock on /dev/nbd4

Any ideas on how to proceed? Thanks.

I'm looking into another storage backend than FoundationDB so closing this.

Going to keep it open and figure out what might be going on.
