Quotas and limits

Limits

Limits are the resource limitations that are allowed for each project. An administrator can configure limits in the manila.conf file.

Users can query their rate and absolute limits.

To see the absolute limits, run:

$ manila absolute-limits
+----------------------------+-------+
| Name                       | Value |
+----------------------------+-------+
| maxTotalShareGigabytes     | 1000  |
| maxTotalShareNetworks      | 10    |
| maxTotalShareSnapshots     | 50    |
| maxTotalShares             | 50    |
| maxTotalSnapshotGigabytes  | 1000  |
| totalShareGigabytesUsed    | 1     |
| totalShareNetworksUsed     | 2     |
| totalShareSnapshotsUsed    | 1     |
| totalSharesUsed            | 1     |
| totalSnapshotGigabytesUsed | 1     |
+----------------------------+-------+

Rate limits control the frequency at which users can issue specific API requests. Administrators use rate limiting to configure limits on the type and number of API calls that can be made in a specific time interval. For example, a rate limit can control the number of GET requests processed during a one-minute period.

To set the API rate limits, modify the etc/manila/api-paste.ini file, which is a part of the WSGI pipeline and defines the actual limits. You need to restart manila-api service after you edit the etc/manila/api-paste.ini file.

[filter:ratelimit]
paste.filter_factory = manila.api.v1.limits:RateLimitingMiddleware.factory
limits = (POST, "*/shares", ^/shares, 120, MINUTE);(PUT, "*/shares", .*, 120, MINUTE);(DELETE, "*", .*, 120, MINUTE)

Also, add the ratelimit to noauth, keystone, keystone_nolimit parameters in the [composite:openstack_share_api] and [composite:openstack_share_api_v2] groups.

[composite:openstack_share_api]
use = call:manila.api.middleware.auth:pipeline_factory
noauth = cors faultwrap ssl ratelimit sizelimit noauth api
keystone = cors faultwrap ssl ratelimit sizelimit authtoken keystonecontext api
keystone_nolimit = cors faultwrap ssl ratelimit sizelimit authtoken keystonecontext api

[composite:openstack_share_api_v2]
use = call:manila.api.middleware.auth:pipeline_factory
noauth = cors faultwrap ssl ratelimit sizelimit noauth apiv2
keystone = cors faultwrap ssl ratelimit sizelimit authtoken keystonecontext apiv2
keystone_nolimit = cors faultwrap ssl ratelimit sizelimit authtoken keystonecontext apiv2

To see the rate limits, run:

$ manila rate-limits
+--------+------------+-------+--------+--------+----------------------+
| Verb   | URI        | Value | Remain | Unit   | Next_Available       |
+--------+------------+-------+--------+--------+----------------------+
| DELETE | "*"        | 120   | 120    | MINUTE | 2015-10-20T15:17:20Z |
| POST   | "*/shares" | 120   | 120    | MINUTE | 2015-10-20T15:17:20Z |
| PUT    | "*/shares" | 120   | 120    | MINUTE | 2015-10-20T15:17:20Z |
+--------+------------+-------+--------+--------+----------------------+

Quotas

Quota sets provide quota management support.

To list the quotas for a project or user, use the manila quota-show command. If you specify the optional --user parameter, you get the quotas for this user in the specified project. If you omit this parameter, you get the quotas for the specified project.

Note

The Shared File Systems service does not perform mapping of usernames and project names to IDs. Provide only ID values to get correct setup of quotas. Setting it by names you set quota for nonexistent project/user. In case quota is not set explicitly by project/user ID, The Shared File Systems service just applies default quotas.

$ manila quota-show --tenant %project_id% --user %user_id%
+--------------------+-------+
| Property           | Value |
+--------------------+-------+
| gigabytes          | 1000  |
| snapshot_gigabytes | 1000  |
| snapshots          | 50    |
| shares             | 50    |
| share_networks     | 10    |
+--------------------+-------+

There are default quotas for a project that are set from the manila.conf file. To list the default quotas for a project, use the manila quota-defaults command:

$ manila quota-defaults --tenant %project_id%
+--------------------+-------+
| Property           | Value |
+--------------------+-------+
| gigabytes          | 1000  |
| snapshot_gigabytes | 1000  |
| snapshots          | 50    |
| shares             | 50    |
| share_networks     | 10    |
+--------------------+-------+

The administrator can update the quotas for a specific project, or for a specific user by providing both the --tenant and --user optional arguments. It is possible to update the shares, snapshots, gigabytes, snapshot-gigabytes, and share-networks quotas.

$ manila quota-update %project_id% --user %user_id% --shares 49 --snapshots 49

As administrator, you can also permit or deny the force-update of a quota that is already used, or if the requested value exceeds the configured quota limit. To force-update a quota, use force optional key.

$ manila quota-update %project_id% --shares 51 --snapshots 51 --force

To revert quotas to default for a project or for a user, delete quotas:

$ manila quota-delete --tenant %project_id% --user %user_id%
