OpenStack Icehouse : Use Storage (NFS)2014/05/30 |
It's possible to use the Virtual Storage provided by Cinder
if an Instance needs more disks.
Configure Virtual storage with NFS on here.

Because of using NFS, NFS server is required to be running on your LAN.
On this example, configure "/storage" directory on "nfs.srv.world" as a shared directory. |
[2] | Configure Storage Node. |

apt-get -y install nfs-common

[4] | For example, create a virtual disk "disk01" with 10GB. It's OK to work on any node. (This example is on Control Node) |

[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. |
