OpenStack Newton : Cinder Storage (Multi-BackEnds)2016/10/26

 
It's possible to use Virtual Storages provided by Cinder if an Instance needs more disks.
Configure Virtual storage with NFS and GlusterFS Multi-Backend on here.

[1]
NFS server is required to be running on your LAN, refer to here.
On this example, configure "/storage" directory on "nfs.srv.world" as a shared directory.
[2]
GlusterFS server is required to be running on your LAN, refer to here.
This example uses a replication volume "vol_replica" provided by "glfs01" and "glfs02".
[3] Configure Storage Node.
# install from EPEL

[root@storage ~]#
yum --enablerepo=epel -y install nfs-utils glusterfs glusterfs-fuse
[root@storage ~]#
vi /etc/cinder/cinder.conf
# add follows in the [DEFAULT] section

enabled_backends=nfs,glusterfs
# add follows to the end

[nfs]
volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.nfs.NfsDriver
volume_backend_name = NFS
nfs_shares_config = /etc/cinder/nfs_shares
nfs_mount_point_base = $state_path/mnt_nfs
[glusterfs]
volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.glusterfs.GlusterfsDriver
volume_backend_name = GlusterFS
glusterfs_shares_config = /etc/cinder/glusterfs_shares
glusterfs_mount_point_base = $state_path/mnt_glusterfs
[root@storage ~]#
vi /etc/cinder/nfs_shares
# create new : specify NFS shared directories

nfs.srv.world:/storage
[root@storage ~]#
vi /etc/cinder/glusterfs_shares
# create new : specify GlusterFS volumes

glfs01.srv.world:/vol_replica
[root@storage ~]#
chmod 640 /etc/cinder/nfs_shares

[root@storage ~]#
chgrp cinder /etc/cinder/nfs_shares

[root@storage ~]#
chmod 640 /etc/cinder/glusterfs_shares

[root@storage ~]#
chgrp cinder /etc/cinder/glusterfs_shares

[root@storage ~]#
systemctl restart openstack-cinder-volume

[root@storage ~]#
chown -R cinder. /var/lib/cinder/mnt_nfs

[4] Configure Compute Node to mount NFS and GlusterFS volumes.
# install from EPEL

[root@node01 ~]#
yum --enablerepo=epel -y install nfs-utils glusterfs glusterfs-fuse
[root@node01 ~]#
vi /etc/idmapd.conf
# line 5: uncomment and change to the own domain name

Domain =
srv.world
[root@node01 ~]#
vi /etc/nova/nova.conf
# add follows to the end

[cinder]
os_region_name = RegionOne
[root@node01 ~]#
systemctl restart openstack-nova-compute

[5] Create volume types. It's OK to work on any node. (This example is on Control Node)
# set environment variable first

[root@dlp ~(keystone)]#
echo "export OS_VOLUME_API_VERSION=2" >> ~/keystonerc

[root@dlp ~(keystone)]#
source ~/keystonerc
[root@dlp ~(keystone)]#
