4.5. Verifying the Integrated Setup


Procedure 4.4. Verify the Integrated Setup

  1. Verify that the Red Hat Storage Volumes are successfully mounted as follows:
    # mount | grep gluster
    10.1.1.11:/glance-vol on /mnt/gluster/glance/images type fuse.glusterfs (rw,default_permissions,allow_other,max_read=131072)
    10.1.1.11:cinder-vol on /var/lib/cinder/volumes/586c24173ac3ab5d1d43aed1f113d9f6 type fuse.glusterfs (rw,default_permissions,allow_other,max_read=131072)
  2. Verify that the Cinder volume is mounted on the Red Hat Storage volumes as follows:
    # getfattr -d -etext -m. -n trusted.glusterfs.pathinfo /var/lib/cinder/volumes/586c24173ac3ab5d1d43aed1f113d9f6
    
    # file: var/lib/cinder/volumes/586c24173ac3ab5d1d43aed1f113d9f6
    trusted.glusterfs.pathinfo="((<DISTRIBUTE:cinder-vol-dht> (<REPLICATE:cinder-vol-replicate-0> <POSIX(/rhs/brick1/cinder-vol):dhcpzz-183.example.com:/rhs/brick1/cinder-vol/> <POSIX(/rhs/brick1/cinder-

  3. Verify that the glance image was created on the Red Hat Storage volumes as follows:
    # glance image-create --name="test" --is-public=true --container-format=ovf --disk-format=qcow2 < f17-x86_64-openstack-sda.qcow2

Use these steps to ensure that Red Hat OpenStack uses Red Hat Storage as the storage platform. For further operations, such as deploying Virtual Machines and managing OpenStack, see the Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform documentation.
