Enabling External Ceph
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
To activate external Ceph integration you need to enable Ceph backend.
|
||||
This can be done individually per service in ``/etc/kolla/globals.yml``:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: yaml
|
||||
|
||||
glance_backend_ceph: "yes"
|
||||
cinder_backend_ceph: "yes"
|
||||
nova_backend_ceph: "yes"
|
||||
gnocchi_backend_storage: "ceph"
|
||||
enable_manila_backend_cephfs_native: "yes"

Edit the Inventory File
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
When using external Ceph, there may be no nodes defined in the storage group.
|
||||
This will cause Cinder and related services relying on this group to fail.
|
||||
In this case, operator should add some nodes to the storage group, all the
|
||||
nodes where ``cinder-volume`` and ``cinder-backup`` will run:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: ini

Nova

----

Ceph RBD can be used as a storage backend for Nova instance ephemeral disks.

This avoids the requirement for local storage for instances on compute nodes.

It improves the performance of migration, since instances' ephemeral disks do

not need to be copied between hypervisors.
