#2442 F33 System-Wide Change: Introduce Storage Instantiation Daemon
Closed: Accepted by zbyszek. Opened by bcotton.

Reopen Issue

Introduce Storage Instantiation Daemon (SID) that aims to provide a central event-driven engine to write modules for identifying specific Linux storage devices, their dependencies, collecting information and state tracking while being aware of device groups forming layers and layers forming whole stacks or simply creating custom groups of enumerated devices. SID will provide mechanisms to retrieve and query collected information and a possibility to bind predefined or custom triggers with actions for each group.

So if I understand it correctly, this is just about introduction of SID. It is not going to be installed by default, just introduced in the distribution and the change itself is to raise awareness of some changes coming up in future in this area. If I understood correctly, i'd like to see this change to be Self-Contained and not System-Wide because it might confuse people.

+-0.

Yes, this is about adding of the package, with no enablement by default. I think that is OK. As to whether this should be "system wide" or "self-contained": I think "self-contained" is more appropriate, since this has no effect on most people.

+1 from me

+1 from me, and I agree this should be downgraded to Self-Contained unless this is going to have some kind of impact on everything.

I agree, if this is only about making it available and not to install / enable it by default, it should be Self-Contained.

+1

+1 and +1 for Self-Contained

@prajnoha Is there a reason why SID isn't being used at all right now?

It's completely new and in development. This is supposed to be the very first (Fedora) release where we're trying to introduce the core infrastructure and basic modules (like multipath) so others can start using it and add their own modules, start migrating associated udev rules and external tools (that are currently called from within udev context).

APPROVED (+4,1,-0) as a self-contained change.
