<title>StorPool driver</title>
|
||||||
|
<para>StorPool is distributed data storage software running on standard x86
|
||||||
|
servers. StorPool aggregates the performance and capacity of all drives
|
||||||
|
into a shared pool of storage distributed among the servers. Within
|
||||||
|
this storage pool the user creates thin-provisioned volumes that are
|
||||||
|
exposed to the clients as block devices. StorPool consists of two parts
|
||||||
|
wrapped in one package - a server and a client. The StorPool server
|
||||||
|
allows a hypervisor to act as a storage node, while the StorPool client
|
||||||
|
allows a hypervisor node to access the storage pool and act as a compute
|
||||||
|
node. In OpenStack terms the StorPool solution allows each hypervisor
|
||||||
|
node to be both a storage and a compute node simultaneously. More
|

<note>
|
||||||
|
<para>To make full use of StorPool's native network communication protocol,
|
||||||
|
the Nova compute nodes will need to use the StorPool libvirt volume
|
||||||
|
attachment driver, nova.virt.libvirt.storpool.LibvirtStorPoolVolumeDriver.</para>
