| [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. |

apt -y install nfs-common

vi /etc/idmapd.conf # line 5 : uncomment and change to your domain name Domain = srv.world

| [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) |

# set environment variable ubuntu@dlp ~(keystone)$ echo "export OS_VOLUME_API_VERSION=3" >> ~/keystonerc ubuntu@dlp ~(keystone)$ source ~/keystonerc

| [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. |
