Overview
This is a pre-release charm intended for testing only.
This charm configures the generic backend in the related manila charm in an OpenStack cloud. This provides NFS shares using Cinder as a backing store. It should be used for testing and development purposes only.
Usage
The charm relies on the prinical manila charm, and is a subordinate to it. It provides configuration data to the manila-share service (which is provided by the manila charm with a role that includes 'share').
If multiple, different, generic backend configurations are required then the
share-backend-name config option should be used to differentiate between the
configuration sections.
Note: this subordinate charm requests that manila configure the nova, neutron and cinder sections that the generic driver needs to launch NFS share instances that provide NFS/CIFS services within their tenant networks. The manila charm provides the main manila service username/password to this charm to enable it to provide those configuration sections.
