Ramana Raja 02f066bed8 Add Manila support for Ubuntu 
Let the plugin setup and configure CephFS as the storage backend for
Manila. This is not done by default. Refer the README to do so.

The following tweaks had to be made:

* Install a development version of Ceph that is compatible with Manila's
  CephFSNative driver.

* The development version is a version greater than Infernalis. And
  from Infernalis onwards, the ceph daemons are run as user "ceph".
  So allow the daemons to run as user "ceph" for such versions.

* Enhance get_ceph_version to check Ceph version  even when the
  ceph mon daemon is not up, by instead checking for the CLI version.

Devstack Ceph Plugin

Overview

Devstack plugin to configure Ceph as the storage backend for openstack services

As part of stack.sh:

  • Installs Ceph (client and server) packages
  • Creates a Ceph cluster for use with openstack services
  • Configures Ceph as the storage backend for Cinder, Cinder Backup, Nova, Manila (not by default), and Glance services
  • Supports Ceph cluster running local or remote to openstack services

As part of unstack.sh | clean.sh:

  • Tears down the Ceph cluster and its related services

This plugin also gets used to configure Ceph as the storage backend for the upstream Ceph CI job named gate-tempest-dsvm-full-devstack-plugin-ceph

How to use

  • Enable the plugin in localrc:

    enable_plugin devstack-plugin-ceph git://git.openstack.org/openstack/devstack-plugin-ceph

  • Ceph is setup as the default storage backend for Cinder, Cinder Backup, Glance and Nova services. To disable Ceph disable as the storage backend for a service use the following setting in the localrc file,

    ENABLE_CEPH_$SERVICE=False

    where $SERVICE can be CINDER, C_BAK, GLANCE or NOVA corresponding to Cinder, Cinder Backup, Glance, and Nova services respectively.

  • Ceph can be enabled as the storage backend for Manila with the following setting in the localrc file,

    ENABLE_CEPH_MANILA=True

    Make sure that the manila plugin is enabled before devstack-plugin-ceph in the localrc file.

  • Then run stack.sh and wait for the magic to happen :)

TODOs

  • Configuring Rados Gateway with Keystone for Swift
  • Add support for Ceph Infernalis release
  • Add support for distro specific ceph repos
