Manila in Kolla
===============

Overview
========
Currently, Kolla can deploy following manila services:

* manila-api
* manila-scheduler
* manila-share

The OpenStack Shared File Systems service (Manila) provides file storage to a
virtual machine. The Shared File Systems service provides an infrastructure
for managing and provisioning of file shares. The service also enables
management of share types as well as share snapshots if a driver supports
them.

Important
=========

For simplicity, this guide describes configuring the Shared File Systems
service to use the ``generic`` back end with the driver handles share
server mode (DHSS) enabled that uses Compute (nova), Networking (neutron)
and Block storage (cinder) services.
Networking service configuration requires the capability of networks being
attached to a public router in order to create shared networks.

Before you proceed, ensure that Compute, Networking and Block storage
services are properly working.

Preparation and Deployment
==========================

Cinder and Ceph are required, enable it in ``/etc/kolla/globals.yml``:

.. code-block:: console

    enable_cinder: "yes"
    enable_ceph: "yes"

Enable Manila and generic backend in ``/etc/kolla/globals.yml``:

.. code-block:: console

    enable_manila: "yes"
    enable_manila_backend_generic: "yes"

By default Manila uses instance flavor id 100 for its file systems. For Manila
to work, either create a new nova flavor with id 100 (use *nova flavor-create*)
or change *service_instance_flavor_id* to use one of the default nova flavor
ids.
Ex: *service_instance_flavor_id = 2* to use nova default flavor ``m1.small``.

Create or modify the file ``/etc/kolla/config/manila-share.conf`` and add the
contents:

.. code-block:: console

    [generic]
    service_instance_flavor_id = 2

Verify Operation
================

Verify operation of the Shared File Systems service. List service components
to verify successful launch of each process:

.. code-block:: console

    # manila service-list
    +------------------+----------------+------+---------+-------+----------------------------+-----------------+
    |      Binary      |    Host        | Zone |  Status | State |         Updated_at         | Disabled Reason |
    +------------------+----------------+------+---------+-------+----------------------------+-----------------+
    | manila-scheduler | controller     | nova | enabled |   up  | 2014-10-18T01:30:54.000000 |       None      |
    | manila-share     | share1@generic | nova | enabled |   up  | 2014-10-18T01:30:57.000000 |       None      |
    +------------------+----------------+------+---------+-------+----------------------------+-----------------+

Launch an Instance
==================

Before being able to create a share, the manila with the generic driver and the
DHSS mode enabled requires the definition of at least an image, a network and a
share-network for being used to create a share server. For that backend
configuration, the share server is an instance where NFS/CIFS shares are
served.

Determine the configuration of the share server
===============================================

Create a default share type before running manila-share service:

.. code-block:: console

    # manila type-create default_share_type True
    +--------------------------------------+--------------------+------------+------------+-------------------------------------+-------------------------+
    | ID                                   | Name               | Visibility | is_default | required_extra_specs                | optional_extra_specs    |
    +--------------------------------------+--------------------+------------+------------+-------------------------------------+-------------------------+
    | 8a35da28-0f74-490d-afff-23664ecd4f01 | default_share_type | public     | -          | driver_handles_share_servers : True | snapshot_support : True |
    +--------------------------------------+--------------------+------------+------------+-------------------------------------+-------------------------+

Create a manila share server image to the Image service:

.. code-block:: console

    # wget http://tarballs.openstack.org/manila-image-elements/images/manila-service-image-master.qcow2
    # glance image-create --name "manila-service-image" \
      --file manila-service-image-master.qcow2 \

      --visibility public --progress

After some time, the share status should change from ``creating``
to ``available``:

.. code-block:: console

    # manila list
    +--------------------------------------+-------------+------+-------------+-----------+-----------+--------------------------------------+-----------------------------+-------------------+
    | ID                                   | Name        | Size | Share Proto | Status    | Is Public | Share Type Name                      | Host                        | Availability Zone |
    +--------------------------------------+-------------+------+-------------+-----------+-----------+--------------------------------------+-----------------------------+-------------------+
    | e1e06b14-ba17-48d4-9e0b-ca4d59823166 | demo-share1 | 1    | NFS         | available | False     | default_share_type                   | share1@generic#GENERIC      | nova              |
    +--------------------------------------+-------------+------+-------------+-----------+-----------+--------------------------------------+-----------------------------+-------------------+

Configure user access to the new share before attempting to mount it via the
network:

.. code-block:: console

    # manila access-allow demo-share1 ip INSTANCE_PRIVATE_NETWORK_IP

Mount the share from an instance
================================

Get export location from share

.. code-block:: console

    # manila show demo-share1

Create a folder where the mount will be placed:

.. code-block:: console

    # mkdir ~/test_folder

Mount the NFS share in the instance using the export location of the share:

.. code-block:: console

    # mount -v 10.254.0.3:/shares/share-422dc546-8f37-472b-ac3c-d23fe410d1b6 ~/test_folder
