Devstack GlusterFS Plugin

Goals

As part of "stack.sh":

  • To install Glusterfs (client and server) packages
  • By default all Gluster-[Glance|Nova|Cinder|Manila] integrations disabled. Look at "How to use" section, to know how to enable.
  • Configures Glusterfs as a backend for Glance, Nova, Cinder and Manila as per localrc configuration
  • Creates Gluster volumes to provide them as storage to Glance, Nova, Cinder or Manila

  • Uninstalls the Gluster packages when we run "unstack.sh"
