OpenStack Ussuri : Use Cinder Storage (NFS)2020/06/09 |
It's possible to use Virtual Storages provided by Cinder if an Instance needs more disks.
Configure Virtual storage with NFS backend on here.

[1] |
NFS server is required to be running on your LAN, refer to here.
On this example, configure [/var/lib/nfs-share] directory on [nfs.srv.world] as a shared directory. |
[2] | Configure Storage Node. |
[root@storage ~]#
dnf -y install nfs-utils
[root@storage ~]#
vi /etc/idmapd.conf # line 5: uncomment and change to your domain name Domain = srv.world
[root@storage ~]#
vi /etc/cinder/cinder.conf # add follows in [DEFAULT] section enabled_backends = nfs # add follows to the end [nfs] volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.nfs.NfsDriver nfs_shares_config = /etc/cinder/nfs_shares nfs_mount_point_base = $state_path/mnt
[root@storage ~]#
vi /etc/cinder/nfs_shares # create new : specify NFS shared directory # if set multiple share, write one per line nfs.srv.world:/var/lib/nfs-share chmod 640 /etc/cinder/nfs_shares [root@storage ~]# chgrp cinder /etc/cinder/nfs_shares [root@storage ~]# systemctl restart openstack-cinder-volume [root@storage ~]# chown -R cinder. /var/lib/cinder/mnt |
[3] | Change Nova settings on Compute Node to mount NFS. |
[root@node01 ~]#
dnf -y install nfs-utils
[root@node01 ~]#
vi /etc/idmapd.conf # line 5: uncomment and change to your domain name Domain = srv.world
[root@node01 ~]#
vi /etc/nova/nova.conf # add to the end [cinder] os_region_name = RegionOne
[root@node01 ~]#
systemctl restart openstack-nova-compute
# if SELinux is enabled, change policy like follows
[root@node01 ~]#
vi iscsiadm.te # create new module iscsiadm 1.0; require { type iscsid_t; class capability dac_override; } #============= iscsid_t ============== allow iscsid_t self:capability dac_override; checkmodule -m -M -o iscsiadm.mod iscsiadm.te [root@node01 ~]# semodule_package --outfile iscsiadm.pp --module iscsiadm.mod [root@node01 ~]# semodule -i iscsiadm.pp |
[4] | Login as a common user you'd like to add volumes to own instances. For example, create a virtual disk [disk01] with 10GB. It's OK to work on any node. (example below is on Control Node) |
# set environment variable [cent@dlp ~(keystone)]$ echo "export OS_VOLUME_API_VERSION=3" >> ~/keystonerc [cent@dlp ~(keystone)]$ source ~/keystonerc

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