Tegile Driver
=============
The Tegile Manila driver uses Tegile IntelliFlash Arrays to provide shared
filesystems to OpenStack.
The Tegile Driver interfaces with a Tegile Array via the REST API.
Requirements
------------
- Tegile IntelliFlash version 3.5.1
- For using CIFS, Active Directory must be configured in the Tegile Array.
Supported Operations
--------------------
The following operations are supported on a Tegile Array:
* Create CIFS/NFS Share
* Delete CIFS/NFS Share
* Allow CIFS/NFS Share access
* Only IP access type is supported for NFS
* USER access type is supported for NFS and CIFS
* RW and RO access supported
* Deny CIFS/NFS Share access
* IP access type is supported for NFS
* USER access type is supported for NFS and CIFS
* Create snapshot
* Delete snapshot
* Extend share
* Shrink share
* Create share from snapshot
Backend Configuration
---------------------
The following parameters need to be configured in the [DEFAULT]
section of */etc/manila/manila.conf*:
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| [DEFAULT] |
+============================+======================================================================================================+
| **Option** | **Description** |
+----------------------------+-----------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| enabled_share_backends | Name of the section on manila.conf used to specify a backend. |
| | E.g. *enabled_share_backends = tegileNAS* |
+----------------------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| enabled_share_protocols | Specify a list of protocols to be allowed for share creation. For Tegile driver this can be: |
| | *NFS* or *CIFS* or *NFS, CIFS*. |
+----------------------------+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The following parameters need to be configured in the [backend] section of */etc/manila/manila.conf*:
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| [tegileNAS] |
+===============================+=====================================================================================================+
| **Option** | **Description** |
+-------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| share_backend_name | A name for the backend. |
+-------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| share_driver | Python module path. For Tegile driver this must be: |
| | *manila.share.drivers.tegile.tegile.TegileShareDriver*. |
+-------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| driver_handles_share_servers| DHSS, Driver working mode. For Tegile driver **this must be**: |
| | *False*. |
+-------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| tegile_nas_server | Tegile array IP to connect from the Manila node. |
+-------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| tegile_nas_login | This field is used to provide username credential to Tegile array. |
+-------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| tegile_nas_password | This field is used to provide password credential to Tegile array. |
+-------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| tegile_default_project | This field can be used to specify the default project in Tegile array where shares are created. |
| | This field is optional. |
+-------------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Below is an example of a valid configuration of Tegile driver:
| ``[DEFAULT]``
| ``enabled_share_backends = tegileNAS``
| ``enabled_share_protocols = NFS,CIFS``
| ``[tegileNAS]``
| ``driver_handles_share_servers = False``
| ``share_backend_name = tegileNAS``
| ``share_driver = manila.share.drivers.tegile.tegile.TegileShareDriver``
| ``tegile_nas_server = 10.12.14.16``
| ``tegile_nas_login = admin``
| ``tegile_nas_password = password``
| ``tegile_default_project = financeshares``
Restart of :term:`manila-share` service is needed for the configuration changes
to take effect.
Restrictions
------------
The Tegile driver has the following restrictions:
- IP access type is supported only for NFS.
- Only FLAT network is supported.
