NFS back-end

If the NetApp back end is configured to use an NFS storage protocol, edit /etc/openstack_deploy/openstack_user_config.yml, and configure the NFS client on each storage node that will use it.

  1. Add the ``cinder_backends`` stanza (which includes ``cinder_nfs_client``) under the ``container_vars`` stanza for each storage node:

    container_vars:
      cinder_backends:
        cinder_nfs_client: 
  2. Configure the location of the file that lists shares available to the block storage service. This configuration file must include ``nfs_shares_config``:

    nfs_shares_config: SHARE_CONFIG

    Replace ``SHARE_CONFIG`` with the location of the share configuration file. For example, /etc/cinder/nfs_shares.

  3. Configure one or more NFS shares:

    shares:
       - { ip: "NFS_HOST", share: "NFS_SHARE" }

    Replace ``NFS_HOST`` with the IP address or hostname of the NFS server, and the ``NFS_SHARE`` with the absolute path to an existing and accessible NFS share.
