Tom Barron 66194ce622 doc migration: install guide 
There is little material on manila in the centralized Install
Guide to migrate as outlined in the migration spec [1], so copy
from our local install guide.  After we complete this migration,
we can remove the job that builds the local install guide and
remove it from the manila tree.

Install and configure a share node running Debian

This section describes how to install and configure a share node for the Shared File Systems service. For simplicity, this configuration references one storage node with the generic driver managing the share servers. The generic backend manages share servers using compute, networking and block services for provisioning shares.

Note that installation and configuration vary by distribution. This section describes the instructions for a share node running a Debian distribution.

Install and configure components

  1. Install the packages:

    # apt-get install manila-share python-pymysql

  2. Edit the /etc/manila/manila.conf file and complete the following actions:

    • In the [database] section, configure database access:

      [database]
...
connection = mysql+pymysql://manila:MANILA_DBPASS@controller/manila

      Replace MANILA_DBPASS with the password you chose for the Shared File Systems database.

Two driver modes

Choose one of the following options to configure the share driver:

Prerequisites

Note

Perform these steps on the storage node.

  1. Install the supporting utility packages:

    • Install LVM and NFS server packages:

      # apt-get install lvm2 nfs-kernel-server

Prerequisites

Before you proceed, verify operation of the Compute, Networking, and Block Storage services. This options requires implementation of Networking option 2 and requires installation of some Networking service components on the storage node.

  • Install the Networking service components:

    # apt-get install neutron-plugin-linuxbridge-agent

Finalize installation

  1. Prepare manila-share as start/stop service. Start the Shared File Systems service including its dependencies:

    # service manila-share restart
