CinderDefaultVolumeType

The name of the OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) default volume type. The default value is tripleo.

CinderEnableDBPurge

Whether to create cron job for purging soft deleted rows in OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) database. The default value is True.

CinderEnableIscsiBackend

Whether to enable or not the Iscsi backend for OpenStack Block Storage (cinder). The default value is True.

CinderEnableNfsBackend

Whether to enable or not the NFS backend for OpenStack Block Storage (cinder). The default value is False.

CinderEnableRbdBackend

Whether to enable or not the Rbd backend for OpenStack Block Storage (cinder). The default value is False.

CinderEtcdLocalConnect

When running OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) A/A, whether to connect to Etcd via the local IP for the Etcd network. If set to true, the ip on the local node will be used. If set to false, the VIP on the Etcd network will be used instead. Defaults to false. The default value is False.

CinderISCSIAvailabilityZone

The availability zone of the Iscsi OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) backend. When set, it overrides the default CinderStorageAvailabilityZone.

CinderISCSIHelper

The iSCSI helper to use with cinder. The default value is lioadm.

CinderISCSIProtocol

Whether to use TCP (iscsi) or iSER RDMA (iser) for iSCSI. The default value is iscsi.

CinderLVMLoopDeviceSize

The size of the loopback file used by the cinder LVM driver. The default value is 10280.

CinderNasSecureFileOperations

Controls whether security enhanced NFS file operations are enabled. Valid values are auto, true or false. Effective when CinderEnableNfsBackend is true. The default value is False.

CinderNasSecureFilePermissions

Controls whether security enhanced NFS file permissions are enabled. Valid values are auto, true or false. Effective when CinderEnableNfsBackend is true. The default value is False.

CinderNfsAvailabilityZone

The availability zone of the NFS OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) backend. When set, it overrides the default CinderStorageAvailabilityZone.

CinderNfsMountOptions

Mount options for NFS mounts used by OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) NFS backend. Effective when CinderEnableNfsBackend is true.

CinderNfsServers

NFS servers used by OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) NFS backend. Effective when CinderEnableNfsBackend is true.

CinderNfsSnapshotSupport

Whether to enable support for snapshots in the NFS driver. Effective when CinderEnableNfsBackend is true. The default value is True.

CinderPassword

The password for the cinder service and database account.

CinderRbdAvailabilityZone

The availability zone of the RBD OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) backend. When set, it overrides the default CinderStorageAvailabilityZone.

CinderRbdExtraPools

List of extra Ceph pools for use with RBD backends for OpenStack Block Storage (cinder). An extra OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) RBD backend driver is created for each pool in the list. This is in addition to the standard RBD backend driver associated with the CinderRbdPoolName.

CinderRbdFlattenVolumeFromSnapshot

Whether RBD volumes created from a snapshot should be flattened in order to remove a dependency on the snapshot. The default value is False.

CinderRbdPoolName

The Ceph pool to use for cinder volumes. The default value is volumes.

CinderStorageAvailabilityZone

The OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) service’s storage availability zone. The default value is nova.

CinderVolumeCluster

The cluster name used for deploying the cinder-volume service in an active-active (A/A) configuration. This configuration requires the OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) backend drivers support A/A, and the cinder-volume service not be managed by pacemaker. If these criteria are not met then the cluster name must be left blank.

CinderVolumeOptEnvVars

Hash of optional environment variables.

CinderVolumeOptVolumes

List of optional volumes to be mounted.

CinderWorkers

Set the number of workers for the block storage service. Note that more workers creates a larger number of processes on systems, which results in excess memory consumption. It is recommended to choose a suitable non-default value on systems with high CPU core counts. 0 sets to the OpenStack internal default, which is equal to the number of CPU cores on the node. The default value is equal to the number of vCPU cores on the physical node.

DockerCinderVolumeUlimit

Ulimit for OpenStack Block Storage (cinder) Volume Container. The default value is ['nofile=131072'].
