OpenStack Zed : Use Cinder Storage (Multi-BackEnds)2022/10/07

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

[1]
For LVM backend on this example, use a volume group [vg_volume01] for it.
[2]
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.
[3] Configure Storage Node.
root@network:~#
apt -y install nfs-common
root@network:~#
vi /etc/idmapd.conf
# line 5 : uncomment and change to your domain name

Domain =
srv.world
root@network:~#
vi /etc/cinder/cinder.conf
# add the value to [enabled_backends] param

enabled_backends = lvm,nfs

# add to the end
[lvm]
target_helper = lioadm
target_protocol = iscsi
target_ip_address = $my_ip
volume_backend_name = LVM
# volume group name created
volume_group = vg_volume01
volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.lvm.LVMVolumeDriver
volumes_dir = $state_path/volumes

[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 

root@storage:~#
vi /etc/cinder/nfs_shares
# create new : specify NFS shared directory
# if set multiple share, write one per line

nfs.srv.world:/var/lib/nfs-share
root@network:~#
chmod 640 /etc/cinder/nfs_shares

root@network:~#
chgrp cinder /etc/cinder/nfs_shares

root@network:~#
systemctl restart cinder-volume

root@network:~#
chown -R cinder. /var/lib/cinder/mnt_nfs
[4] Configure Compute Node.
root@node01:~#
apt -y install nfs-common
root@node01:~#
vi /etc/idmapd.conf
# line 5 : uncomment and change to your domain name

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

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

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

root@dlp ~(keystone)#
echo "export OS_VOLUME_API_VERSION=3" >> ~/keystonerc

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