OpenStack Shared File Systems service
|
||||
=====================================
|
||||
|
||||
The OpenStack Shared File Systems service (manila) provides file
|
||||
storage to a virtual machine. The Shared File Systems service
|
||||
provides an infrastructure for managing shares and provides access
|
||||
to shares to instances. The service also enables management of share
|
||||
types as well as share snapshots if a driver supports snapshots.
|
||||
|
||||
The Shared File Systems service consists of the following components:
|
||||
|
||||
manila-api
|
||||
Accepts API requests and routes them to the manila-share for
|
||||
action.
|
||||
|
||||
manila-share
|
||||
Interacts directly with the Shared File Systems service and processes
|
||||
such as the manila-scheduler. It also interacts with these processes
|
||||
through a message queue. The manila-share service responds to read
|
||||
and write requests sent to the Shared File Systems service to maintain
|
||||
state. It can interact with a variety of storage providers through a
|
||||
driver architecture.
|
||||
|
||||
manila-scheduler daemon
|
||||
Selects the optimal storage provider node on which to create the
|
||||
share. A similar component to the cinder-scheduler.
|
||||
|
||||
Messaging queue
|
||||
Routes information between the Shared File Systems processes.
