OpenStack Caracal : Use Cinder Storage (NFS)2024/08/07 |
It's possible to use Virtual Storages provided by Cinder if an Instance needs more disks. Configure Virtual storage with NFS backend on here. ------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+------------ | | | eth0|10.0.0.30 eth0|10.0.0.50 eth0|10.0.0.51 +-----------+-----------+ +-----------+-----------+ +-----------+-----------+ | [ dlp.srv.world ] | | [ network.srv.world ] | | [ node01.srv.world ] | | (Control Node) | | (Network Node) | | (Compute Node) | | | | | | | | MariaDB RabbitMQ | | Open vSwitch | | Libvirt | | Memcached Nginx | | Neutron Server | | Nova Compute | | Keystone httpd | | OVN-Northd | | Open vSwitch | | Glance Nova API | | Nginx iSCSI Target | | OVN Metadata Agent | | Cinder API | | Cinder Volume | | OVN-Controller | +-----------------------+ +-----------------------+ +-----------------------+ -----------+------------------------------------------------------------------- eth0|10.0.0.35 +----------+-----------+ | [ nfs.srv.world ] | | NFS Server | +----------------------+ |

NFS server is required to be running on your local network, refer to here. |
[2] | Configure Storage Node. |

[3] | Change Nova settings on Compute Node to mount NFS. |

# if SELinux is enabled, change policy like follows
[root@node01 ~]#

[4] | Login as an openstack user and add volumes to your instances. For example, create a virtual disk [disk01] with 10GB. It's OK to work on any node. (example below is on Control Node) |
# set environment variable [cent@dlp ~(keystone)]$ echo "export OS_VOLUME_API_VERSION=3" >> ~/keystonerc [cent@dlp ~(keystone)]$ source ~/keystonerc

[5] | Attach the virtual disk to an Instance. For the example below, the disk is connected as [/dev/vdb]. It's possible to use it as a storage to create a file system on it. |
