LINSTOR driver

The LINSTOR driver allows Cinder to use DRBD/LINSTOR instances.

External package installation

The driver requires the python-linstor package for communication with the LINSTOR Controller. Install the package from PYPI using the following command:

$ python -m pip install python-linstor

Configuration

Set the following option in the cinder.conf file for the DRBD transport:

volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.linstordrv.LinstorDrbdDriver

Or use the following for iSCSI transport:

volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.linstordrv.LinstorIscsiDriver

The following table contains the configuration options supported by the LINSTOR driver:

cinder.volume.drivers.linstordrv
