It's possible to use Virtual Storage provided by Cinder
for Virtual Machine Instance.
This example shows to set to use NFS for Virtual Storage.
If you've already set LVM for Virtual Storage, unset it first.

| [1] |
Configure NFS Server in your LAN first.
This example uses a shared directory "/storage" provided by NFS. |
| [2] | Set idmapd |
|
[root@dlp ~(keystone)]#
vi /etc/idmapd.conf # line 5: uncomment and chnage your domain name Domain = srv.world /etc/rc.d/init.d/rpcidmapd restart Stopping RPC idmapd: [ OK ] Starting RPC idmapd: [ OK ] |
| [3] | Configure Cinder |
|
[root@dlp ~(keystone)]#
vi /etc/cinder/cinder.conf # near line 11: add follows volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.nfs.NfsDriver nfs_shares_config = /etc/cinder/nfs.shares nfs_mount_point_base = /var/lib/cinder/mnt
[root@dlp ~(keystone)]#
vi /etc/cinder/nfs.shares # create new : specify NFS shared directory 10.0.0.100:/storage
[root@dlp ~(keystone)]#
[root@dlp ~(keystone)]# chgrp cinder /etc/cinder/nfs.shares [root@dlp ~(keystone)]# mkdir /var/lib/cinder/mnt [root@dlp ~(keystone)]# chown cinder. /var/lib/cinder/mnt /etc/rc.d/init.d/openstack-cinder-volume restart Stopping openstack-cinder-volume: [ OK ] Starting openstack-cinder-volume: [ OK ] |
| [4] | For example, create a volume named "disk01", 10GB. |
|
[root@dlp ~(keystone)]# cinder create --display_name disk01 10
