Tom Barron a149c283d7 doc: move stuff from contributor to admin 
As agreed in weekly manila community meetings and at the
Queens PTG, several documents currently presented to contributors
are really of general interest to cloud administrators and should
be presented accordingly.

Move the docs on manila back ends, the feature support mapping,
capabilities and extra specs, and export locations and metatdata
to the admin section.

Huawei Driver
=============
Huawei NAS Driver is a plugin based the OpenStack manila service. The Huawei NAS
Driver can be used to provide functions such as the share and snapshot for virtual
machines(instances) in OpenStack. Huawei NAS Driver enables the OceanStor V3 series
V300R002 storage system to provide only network filesystems for OpenStack.
Requirements
------------
- The OceanStor V3 series V300R002 storage system.
- The following licenses should be activated on V3 for File:
* CIFS
* NFS
* HyperSnap License (for snapshot)
Supported Operations
--------------------
The following operations is supported on V3 storage:
- Create CIFS/NFS Share
- Delete CIFS/NFS Share
- Allow CIFS/NFS Share access
* IP and USER access types are supported for NFS(ro/rw).
* Only USER access type is supported for CIFS(ro/rw).
- Deny CIFS/NFS Share access
- Create snapshot
- Delete snapshot
- Manage CIFS/NFS share
- Support pools in one backend
- Extend share
- Shrink share
- Support multi RestURLs(<RestURL>)
- Support multi-tenancy
- Ensure share
- Create share from snapshot
- Support QoS
Pre-Configurations on Huawei
----------------------------
1. Create a driver configuration file. The driver configuration file name must
be the same as the manila_huawei_conf_file item in the manila_conf configuration
file.
2. Configure Product.
Product indicates the storage system type. For the OceanStor V3 series V300R002
storage systems, the driver configuration file is as follows:
::
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<Config>
<Storage>
<Product>V3</Product>
<LogicalPortIP>x.x.x.x</LogicalPortIP>
<Port>abc;CTE0.A.H1</Port>
<RestURL>https://x.x.x.x:8088/deviceManager/rest/;
https://x.x.x.x:8088/deviceManager/rest/</RestURL>
<UserName>xxxxxxxxx</UserName>
<UserPassword>xxxxxxxxx</UserPassword>
</Storage>
<Filesystem>
<StoragePool>xxxxxxxxx</StoragePool>
<SectorSize>64</SectorSize>
<WaitInterval>3</WaitInterval>
<Timeout>60</Timeout>
<NFSClient>
<IP>x.x.x.x</IP>
</NFSClient>
<CIFSClient>
<UserName>xxxxxxxxx</UserName>
<UserPassword>xxxxxxxxx</UserPassword>
</CIFSClient>
</Filesystem>
</Config>
- `Product` is a type of a storage product. Set it to `V3`.
- `LogicalPortIP` is an IP address of the logical port.
- `Port` is a port name list of bond port or ETH port, used to
create vlan and logical port. Multi Ports can be configured in
<Port>(separated by ";"). If <Port> is not configured, then will choose
an online port on the array.
- `RestURL` is an access address of the REST interface. Multi RestURLs
can be configured in <RestURL>(separated by ";"). When one of the RestURL
failed to connect, driver will retry another automatically.
- `UserName` is a user name of an administrator.
- `UserPassword` is a password of an administrator.
- `StoragePool` is a name of a storage pool to be used.
- `SectorSize` is the size of the disk blocks, optional value can be "4", "8", "16", "32" or "64",
and the units is KB. If "sectorsize" is configured in both share_type and xml file, the value
of sectorsize in the share_type will be used. If "sectorsize" is configured in neither
share_type nor xml file, huawei storage backends will provide a default value(64) when creating
a new share.
- `WaitInterval` is the interval time of querying the file system status.
- `Timeout` is the timeout period for waiting command execution of a device to
complete.
- `NFSClient\IP` is the backend IP in admin network to use for mounting NFS share.
- `CIFSClient\UserName` is the backend user name in admin network to use for mounting CIFS share.
- `CIFSClient\UserPassword` is the backend password in admin network to use for mounting CIFS share.
Backend Configuration
---------------------
Modify the `manila.conf` manila configuration file and add share_driver and
manila_huawei_conf_file items.
Example for configuring a storage system:
- `share_driver` = manila.share.drivers.huawei.huawei_nas.HuaweiNasDriver
- `manila_huawei_conf_file` = /etc/manila/manila_huawei_conf.xml
- `driver_handles_share_servers` = True or False
.. note::
- If `driver_handles_share_servers` is True, the driver will choose a port
in <Port> to create vlan and logical port for each tenant network.
And the share type with the DHSS extra spec should be set to True when
creating shares.
- If `driver_handles_share_servers` is False, then will use the IP in
<LogicalPortIP>. Also the share type with the DHSS extra spec should be
set to False when creating shares.
Restart of manila-share service is needed for the configuration changes to take
effect.
Share Types
-----------
When creating a share, a share type can be specified to determine where and
how the share will be created. If a share type is not specified, the
`default_share_type` set in the manila configuration file is used.
Manila requires that the share type includes the `driver_handles_share_servers`
extra-spec. This ensures that the share will be created on a backend that
supports the requested driver_handles_share_servers (share networks) capability.
For the Huawei driver, this must be set to False.
To create a share on a backend with a specific type of disks, include the
`huawei_disk_type` extra-spec in the share type. Valid values for this
extra-spec are 'ssd', 'sas', 'nl_sas' or 'mix'. This share will be created
on a backend with a matching disk type.
Another common manila extra-spec used to determine where a share is created
is `share_backend_name`. When this extra-spec is defined in the share type,
the share will be created on a backend with a matching share_backend_name.
Manila "share types" may contain qualified extra-specs, -extra-specs that
have significance for the backend driver and the CapabilityFilter. This
commit makes the Huawei driver report the following boolean capabilities:
- capabilities:dedupe
- capabilities:compression
- capabilities:thin_provisioning
- capabilities:huawei_smartcache
* huawei_smartcache:cachename
- capabilities:huawei_smartpartition
* huawei_smartpartition:partitionname
- capabilities:qos
* qos:maxIOPS
* qos:minIOPS
* qos:minbandwidth
* qos:maxbandwidth
* qos:latency
* qos:iotype
- capabilities:huawei_sectorsize
The scheduler will choose a host that supports the needed
capability when the CapabilityFilter is used and a share
type uses one or more of the following extra-specs:
- capabilities:dedupe='<is> True' or '<is> False'
- capabilities:compression='<is> True' or '<is> False'
- capabilities:thin_provisioning='<is> True' or '<is> False'
- capabilities:huawei_smartcache='<is> True' or '<is> False'
* huawei_smartcache:cachename=test_cache_name
- capabilities:huawei_smartpartition='<is> True' or '<is> False'
* huawei_smartpartition:partitionname=test_partition_name
- capabilities:qos='<is> True' or '<is> False'
* qos:maxIOPS=100
* qos:minIOPS=10
* qos:maxbandwidth=100
* qos:minbandwidth=10
* qos:latency=10
* qos:iotype=0
- capabilities:huawei_sectorsize='<is> True' or '<is> False'
* huawei_sectorsize:sectorsize=4
- huawei_disk_type='ssd' or 'sas' or 'nl_sas' or 'mix'
`thin_provisioning` will be reported as [True, False] for Huawei backends.
`dedupe` will be reported as [True, False] for Huawei backends.
`compression` will be reported as [True, False] for Huawei backends.
`huawei_smartcache` will be reported as [True, False] for Huawei backends.
Adds SSDs into a high-speed cache pool and divides the pool into
multiple cache partitions to cache hotspot data in random and small read I/Os.
`huawei_smartpartition` will be reported as [True, False] for Huawei backends.
Add share to the smartpartition named 'test_partition_name'.
Allocates cache resources based on service characteristics,
ensuring the quality of critical services.
`qos` will be reported as True for backends that use QoS (Quality of Service)
specification.
`huawei_sectorsize` will be reported as [True, False] for Huawei backends.
`huawei_disk_type` will be reported as "ssd", "sas", "nl_sas" or "mix" for
Huawei backends.
Restrictions
------------
The Huawei driver has the following restrictions:
- IP and USER access types are supported for NFS.
- Only LDAP domain is supported for NFS.
- Only USER access type is supported for CIFS.
- Only AD domain is supported for CIFS.
