6.4. Configure the Volume Service
6.4.1. Block Storage Driver Support
The volume service (
openstack-cinder-volume
) requires access to suitable block storage. Red Hat OpenStack Platform provides volume drivers for the following supported block storage types:
- Red Hat Ceph
- LVM/iSCSI
- ThinLVM
- NFS
- NetApp
- Dell EqualLogic
- Dell Storage Center
For instructions on how to set up an LVM back end, refer to Section 6.4.2, “Configure OpenStack Block Storage to Use an LVM Storage Back End”.
6.4.2. Configure OpenStack Block Storage to Use an LVM Storage Back End
The
openstack-cinder-volume
service can make use of a volume group attached directly to the server on which the service runs. This volume group must be created exclusively for use by the Block Storage service, and the configuration updated to point to the name of the volume group.
All steps in the following procedure must be performed on the server hosting the
openstack-cinder-volume
service, while logged in as the root
user.
Procedure 6.7. Configuring openstack-cinder-volume to Use LVM Storage as a Back End
- Create a physical volume:
#
pvcreate DEVICE
Physical volume "DEVICE" successfully createdReplace DEVICE with the path to a valid, unused, device. For example:#
pvcreate /dev/sdX
- Create a volume group:
#
vgcreate cinder-volumes DEVICE
Volume group "cinder-volumes" successfully createdReplace DEVICE with the path to the device used when creating the physical volume. Optionally replace cinder-volumes with an alternative name for the new volume group. - Set the
volume_group
configuration key to the name of the volume group created in the previous step:#
openstack-config --set /etc/cinder/cinder.conf \
DEFAULT volume_group cinder-volumes
- Ensure that the correct volume driver for accessing LVM storage is in use by setting the
volume_driver
configuration key tocinder.volume.drivers.lvm.LVMVolumeDriver
:#
openstack-config --set /etc/cinder/cinder.conf \
DEFAULT volume_driver cinder.volume.drivers.lvm.LVMVolumeDriver
6.4.3. Configure the SCSI Target Daemon
The
openstack-cinder-volume
service uses a SCSI target daemon for mounting storage. You must install a SCSI target daemon on each server hosting an instance of the openstack-cinder-volume
service, while logged in as the root
user.
Procedure 6.8. Configure a SCSI Target Daemon
- Install the targetcli package:
#
yum install targetcli
- Launch the
target
daemon and configure it to start at boot time:#
systemctl start target.service
#
systemctl enable target.service
- Configure the volume service to use the
lioadm
iSCSI target user-land tool:#
openstack-config --set /etc/cinder/cinder.conf \
DEFAULT iscsi_helper lioadm
- Set the IP address on which the iSCSI daemon must listen (ISCSIIP):
#
openstack-config --set /etc/cinder/cinder.conf \
DEFAULT iscsi_ip_address ISCSIIP
Replace ISCSI_IP with the IP address or host name of the server hosting theopenstack-cinder-volume
service.
