Step 7 - Configure the Network
******************************
In Neutron Controller it is necessary to create a network, a subnet and to add
this subnet interface to a router:
Create a network to the given tenant (demo), providing the DEMO_ID (this can be
fetched using *keystone tenant-list*), a name for the network, the name of the
physical network over which the virtual network is implemented and the type of
the physical mechanism by which the virtual network is implemented:
| ``$ neutron net-create --tenant-id <DEMO_ID> hnas_network``
| ``--provider:physical_network=physnet2 --provider:network_type=flat``
Create a subnet to same tenant (demo), providing the DEMO_ID (this can be fetched
using *keystone tenant-list*), the gateway IP of this subnet, a name for the
subnet, the network ID created on previously step (this can be fetched using
*neutron net-list*) and CIDR of subnet:
| ``$ neutron subnet-create --tenant-id <DEMO_ID> --gateway <GATEWAY>``
| ``--name hnas_subnet <NETWORK_ID> <SUBNET_CIDR>``
Finally, add the subnet interface to a router, providing the router ID and
subnet ID created on previously step (can be fetched using *neutron subnet-list*):

Manila has the ability to manage and unmanage shares. If there is a share in
the storage and it is not in OpenStack, you can manage that share and use it
as a Manila Share. HNAS drivers use virtual-volumes (V-VOL) to create shares.
Only V-VOL shares can be used by the driver. If the NFS export is a ordinary

virtual-volumes and simultaneous SSC connections. Check the manual
specification for your system.

real used space in HNAS. Also, a snapshot does not initially take any space in
HNAS, it only stores the difference between the share and the snapshot, so it
grows when share data is changed.
