Object Storage (swift) is a multi-tenant Object Storage system. It is
|
|||
|
|
highly scalable, can manage large amounts of unstructured data, and
|
|||
|
|
provides a RESTful HTTP API.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The following procedure describes how to set up storage devices and
|
|||
|
|
modify the Object Storage configuration files to enable swift
|
|||
|
|
usage.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#. `The section called "Configure and mount storage
|
|||
|
|
devices" <configure-swift-devices.html>`_
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#. `The section called "Configure an Object Storage
|
|||
|
|
deployment" <configure-swift-config.html>`_
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
#. Optionally, allow all Identity (keystone) users to use swift by setting
|
|||
|
|
``swift_allow_all_users`` in the ``user_variables.yml`` file to
|
|||
|
|
``True``. Any users with the ``_member_`` role (all authorized
|
|||
|
|
keystone users) can create containers and upload objects
|
|||
|
|
to Object Storage.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If this value is ``False``, then by default, only users with the
|
|||
|
|
admin or ``swiftoperator`` role are allowed to create containers or
|
|||
|
|
manage tenants.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When the backend type for the Image Service (glance) is set to
|
|||
|
|
``swift``, glance can access the swift cluster
|
|||
|
|
regardless of whether this value is ``True`` or ``False``.

Overview
|
|||
|
|
~~~~~~~~
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Object Storage (swift) is configured using the
|
|||
|
|
``/etc/openstack_deploy/conf.d/swift.yml`` file and the
|
|||
|
|
``/etc/openstack_deploy/user_variables.yml`` file.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When installing swift, use the group variables in the
|
|||
|
|
``/etc/openstack_deploy/conf.d/swift.yml`` file for the Ansible
|
|||
|
|
playbooks. Some variables cannot
|
|||
|
|
be changed after they are set, while some changes require re-running the
|
|||
|
|
playbooks. The values in the ``swift_hosts`` section supersede values in
|
|||
|
|
the ``swift`` section.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
To view the configuration files, including information about which
|
|||
|
|
variables are required and which are optional, see `Appendix A, *OSA
|
|||
|
|
configuration files* <app-configfiles.html>`_.
