|
It's possible to use Virtual Storages provided by Cinder if an Instance needs more disks.
Configure Virtual storage with NFS backend on here.

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 ~]#
yum -y install nfs-utils
[root@storage ~]#
vi /etc/idmapd.conf # line 5: uncomment and change to the own domain name Domain = srv.world
[root@storage ~]#
vi /etc/cinder/cinder.conf # add follows in the [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 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 ~]#
yum -y install nfs-utils
[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 to the end [cinder] os_region_name = RegionOne systemctl restart openstack-nova-compute |
| [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. (This example is on Control Node) |
