OpenStack Caracal : Use Cinder Storage (NFS)2024/05/22 |
It's possible to use Virtual Storages provided by Cinder if an Instance needs more disks. Configure Virtual storage with NFS backend on here. ------------+--------------------------+--------------------------+------------ | | | eth0|10.0.0.30 eth0|10.0.0.50 eth0|10.0.0.51 +-----------+-----------+ +-----------+-----------+ +-----------+-----------+ | [ dlp.srv.world ] | | [ network.srv.world ] | | [ node01.srv.world ] | | (Control Node) | | (Network Node) | | (Compute Node) | | | | | | | | MariaDB RabbitMQ | | Neutron L2/L3 Agent | | Libvirt | | Memcached Nginx | | Neutron Metadata | | Nova Compute | | Keystone httpd | | Open vSwitch | | Neutron L2 Agent | | Glance Nova API | | iSCSI Target | | Open vSwitch | | Neutron Server | | Cinder Volume | | | | Neutron Metadata | | | | | | Cinder API | | | | | +-----------------------+ +-----------------------+ +-----------------------+ -----------+------------------------------------------------------------------- eth0|10.0.0.35 +----------+-----------+ | [ nfs.srv.world ] | | NFS Server | +----------------------+ |

NFS server is required to be running on your local network, refer to here. |
[2] | 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 = nfs
# add to last line [nfs] volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.nfs.NfsDriver nfs_shares_config = /etc/cinder/nfs_shares nfs_mount_point_base = $state_path/mnt
root@network:~#
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 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:cinder /var/lib/cinder/mnt

[3] | Change Nova settings on Compute Node to mount NFS. |
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:~#

[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. |
