The OpenStack install guide team has recommended that projects that are not part of the starter-kit:compute [1] (and a few other projects like Cinder and Horizon) maintain their install guide in-tree.

Shared File Systems Installation Tutorial

The OpenStack Shared File Systems service (manila) provides coordinated access to shared or distributed file systems. The method in which the share is provisioned and consumed is determined by the Shared File Systems driver, or drivers in the case of a multi-backend configuration. There are a variety of drivers that support NFS, CIFS, HDFS, GlusterFS, CEPHFS and other protocols as well.
The Shared File Systems API and scheduler services typically run on the controller nodes. Depending upon the drivers used, the share service can run on controllers, compute nodes, or storage nodes.
Important
For simplicity, this guide describes configuring the Shared File
Systems service to use the generic back end with the driver
handles share server mode (DHSS) enabled that uses the Compute service (nova), Networking
service (neutron) and Block storage service (cinder).
Networking service configuration requires the capability of networks being attached to a public router in order to create share networks.
Before you proceed, ensure that Compute, Networking and Block storage services are properly working. For networking service, ensure that option 2 is properly configured.
For more information, see the Configuration Reference.
