From 5abd530460e3d5a60142d9350d93544402b6dec4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zac Dover Date: Sun, 8 Oct 2023 07:43:43 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] doc/architecture: repair RBD sentence Improve an ambiguous sentence in doc/architecture.rst. The problem presented by the original sentence is that the phrasal verb "to provide with" is implicated in one of its possible readings. Interpreted in that way, the sentence seems to express the incorrect idea that RBD furnishes block devices with snapshotting and cloning, as though snapshotting and cloning are being delivered to the block devices. In fact, snapshotting and cloning are just features of RBD, and are features that are described on this page: https://docs.ceph.com/en/quincy/rbd/rbd-snapshot/.
