Quobyte Cinder Driver
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
To use the ``Quobyte`` Cinder backend, enable and configure the ``Quobyte``
|
|
Cinder driver in ``/etc/kolla/globals.yml``.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
enable_cinder_backend_quobyte: "yes"
|
|
|
|
.. end
|
|
|
|
Also set values for ``quobyte_storage_host`` and ``quobyte_storage_volume`` in
|
|
``/etc/kolla/globals.yml`` to the hostname or IP address of the Quobyte
|
|
registry and the Quobyte volume respectively.
|
|
|
|
Since ``Quobyte`` is proprietary software that requires a license, the use of
|
|
this backend requires the ``Quobyte`` Client software package to be installed
|
|
in the ``cinder-volume`` and ``nova-compute`` containers. To do this follow the
|
|
steps outlined in the `kolla image building guide
|
|
<https://docs.openstack.org/kolla/latest/admin/image-building.html>`__,
|
|
particularly the ``Package Customisation`` and ``Custom Repos`` sections. The
|
|
repository information is available in the ``Quobyte`` customer portal.
