The IBM Storage Driver for OpenStack is a Block Storage driver that supports IBM SONAS and V7000 storage systems over NFS.
Set the following in your cinder.conf, and
use the table of options to configure it.
volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.ibm.ibmnas
| Configuration option = Default value | Description |
|---|---|
| [DEFAULT] | |
ibmnas_platform_type = v7ku |
(StrOpt) IBMNAS platform type to be used as backend storage; valid values are - v7ku : for using IBM Storwize V7000 Unified, sonas : for using IBM Scale Out NAS, gpfs-nas : for using NFS based IBM GPFS deployments. |
nas_ip = |
(StrOpt) IP address or Hostname of NAS system. |
nas_login = admin |
(StrOpt) User name to connect to NAS system. |
nas_mount_options = None |
(StrOpt) Options used to mount the storage backend file system where Cinder volumes are stored. |
nas_password = |
(StrOpt) Password to connect to NAS system. |
nas_private_key = |
(StrOpt) Filename of private key to use for SSH authentication. |
nas_secure_file_operations = auto |
(StrOpt) Allow network-attached storage systems to operate in a secure environment where root level access is not permitted. If set to False, access is as the root user and insecure. If set to True, access is not as root. If set to auto, a check is done to determine if this is a new installation: True is used if so, otherwise False. Default is auto. |
nas_secure_file_permissions = auto |
(StrOpt) Set more secure file permissions on network-attached storage volume files to restrict broad other/world access. If set to False, volumes are created with open permissions. If set to True, volumes are created with permissions for the cinder user and group (660). If set to auto, a check is done to determine if this is a new installation: True is used if so, otherwise False. Default is auto. |
nas_share_path = |
(StrOpt) Path to the share to use for storing Cinder volumes. For example: "/srv/export1" for an NFS server export available at 10.0.5.10:/srv/export1 . |
nas_ssh_port = 22 |
(IntOpt) SSH port to use to connect to NAS system. |
