cinder.volume.drivers.inspur.as13000.as13000_driver

Supported operations

  • Create, list, delete, attach (map), and detach (unmap) volumes.
  • Create, list and delete volume snapshots.
  • Create a volume from a snapshot.
  • Copy an image to a volume.
  • Copy a volume to an image.
  • Clone a volume.
  • Extend a volume.

Configure Inspur AS13000 iSCSI backend

This section details the steps required to configure the Inspur AS13000 storage cinder driver.

  1. In the cinder.conf configuration file under the [DEFAULT] section, set the enabled_backends parameter.

    [DEFAULT]
enabled_backends = AS13000-1

  2. Add a backend group section for backend group specified in the enabled_backends parameter.

  3. In the newly created backend group section, set the following configuration options:

    [AS13000-1]
# The driver path
volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.inspur.as13000.as13000_driver.AS13000Driver
# Management IP of Inspur AS13000 storage array
san_ip = 10.0.0.10
# The Rest API port
san_api_port = 8088
# Management username of Inspur AS13000 storage array
san_login = root
# Management password of Inspur AS13000 storage array
san_password = passw0rd
# The Pool used to allocated volumes
as13000_ipsan_pools = Pool0
# The Meta Pool to use, should be a replication Pool
as13000_meta_pool = Pool_Rep
# Backend name
volume_backend_name = AS13000

  4. Save the changes to the /etc/cinder/cinder.conf file and restart the cinder-volume service.
