OpenStack Xena : Use Cinder Storage (NFS)2021/11/23 |
|
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 local network, refer to here.
On this example, configure [/var/lib/nfs-share] directory on [nfs.srv.world] as a shared directory. |
| [2] | Configure Storage Node. |

dnf -y install nfs-utils

| [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) |

| [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. |
