Enhancement: Extstore + WarmRestart

[zipelkopf]

Hi,
I tried implementing the Extstore feature (https://github.com/memcached/memcached/wiki/Extstore) combined with the WarmRestart (https://github.com/memcached/memcached/wiki/WarmRestart) but I get the following message after a graceful restart:

memcached[5869]: [restart] memory restart with extstore not presently supported.

Otherwise the 2 features work fine independently.

I guess it is not (yet) possibile to combine them together?
I'm not an expert here but I feel like it would be good to have it working... at present I'm loosing a lot of large cached objects from the Extstore on restart.

FYI, I tried with MemCacheD 1.6.14 on CentOS 7.

I appreciate any advice or a workaround for this scenario.

Thanks!

Hey,

No real workaround, sorry. It's on the roadmap for soon, blocked by getting the proxy released. I can't exactly speak to when other than sooner than later :( It's not incredibly difficult to do but is probably more than a day of work.

@dormando Thanks!
It's already good to know it's on the roadmap 👍

Not sure how the process works I will be happy to contribute with some testing once released, just let me know, otherwise thanks again.
Cheers

Hi @dormando,
I hope your proxy work is proceeding well... no pressure, but would you have a better idea about this one?

I really think it would be very beneficial, I also got an additional candidate project I could apply it too :-)

Thanks a mill!

It's quite a slog, but getting there. I always accept more sponsors to help with time/motivation :)

You are more than welcome and thanks for your time and contribution! 👍
