Ian Wienand f3121f0fb7 Fix up doc errors
It seems that pbr's "warnerrors" isn't actually doing anything at the
moment (I680b448471e687919d202e8f2abe57f8ba3b22ee) meaning we're able
to commit docs with RST parser errors.  Fix all these up in some
minimal way (I have not audited content, just made it pass build).

Link the specs in so they're referenced from the top level.

python-brickclient

  • This element is aimed for providing cinder local attach/detach functionality.
  • Currently the feature has a dependency on a known bug https://launchpad.net/bugs/1623549, which has been resolved and will be part of the upstream with the next release of python-brick-cinderclient-ext. Note: Current version of python-brick-cinderclient-ext i.e. 0.2.0 requires and update to be made in Line32 for /usr/share/python-brickclient/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/brick_cinderclient_ext/__init__.py: update brick-python-cinderclient-ext to python-brick-cinderclient-ext.

Usage

Pass the below shell script to parameter user-data and set config-drive=true at the time of provisioning the node via nova-boot to make cinder local attach/detach commands talk to your cloud controller.

#!/bin/bash
FILE="/etc/bash.bashrc"
[ ! -f "$FILE" ] && touch "$FILE"
echo 'export OS_AUTH_URL="http://<controller_ip>:5000/v2.0"' >> "$FILE"
echo 'export OS_PASSWORD="password"'  >> "$FILE"
echo 'export OS_USERNAME="demo"' >> "$FILE"
echo 'export OS_TENANT_NAME="demo"'  >> "$FILE"
echo 'export OS_PROJECT_NAME="demo"' >> "$FILE"
exec bash

To attach: ``/usr/share/python-brickclient/venv/bin/cinder local-attach <volume_id>``
To detach: ``/usr/share/python-brickclient/venv/bin/cinder local-detach <volume_id>``

Alternatively, the same action can be completed manually at the node which does not require setting up of config drive such as:

/usr/share/python-brickclient/venv/bin/cinder \
  --os-username demo --os-password password \
  --os-tenant-name demo --os-project-name demo \
  --os-auth-url=http://<controller_ip>:5000/v2.0 local-attach <volume_id>
