Edit the /etc/manila/manila.conf
file and complete the following
actions:
In the [DEFAULT]
section, enable the generic driver and the NFS
protocol:
[DEFAULT]
...
enabled_share_backends = generic
enabled_share_protocols = NFS
Note
Back end names are arbitrary. As an example, this guide uses the name of the driver.
In the [neutron]
, [nova]
, and [cinder]
sections, enable
authentication for those services:
[neutron]
...
url = http://controller:9696
www_authenticate_uri = http://controller:5000
auth_url = http://controller:5000
memcached_servers = controller:11211
auth_type = password
project_domain_name = Default
user_domain_name = Default
region_name = RegionOne
project_name = service
username = neutron
password = NEUTRON_PASS
[nova]
...
www_authenticate_uri = http://controller:5000
auth_url = http://controller:5000
memcached_servers = controller:11211
auth_type = password
project_domain_name = Default
user_domain_name = Default
region_name = RegionOne
project_name = service
username = nova
password = NOVA_PASS
[cinder]
...
www_authenticate_uri = http://controller:5000
auth_url = http://controller:5000
memcached_servers = controller:11211
auth_type = password
project_domain_name = Default
user_domain_name = Default
region_name = RegionOne
project_name = service
username = cinder
password = CINDER_PASS
In the [generic]
section, configure the generic driver:
[generic]
share_backend_name = GENERIC
share_driver = manila.share.drivers.generic.GenericShareDriver
driver_handles_share_servers = True
service_instance_flavor_id = 100
service_image_name = manila-service-image
service_instance_user = manila
service_instance_password = manila
interface_driver = manila.network.linux.interface.BridgeInterfaceDriver
Note
You can also use SSH keys instead of password authentication for service instance credentials.
Important
The service_image_name
, service_instance_flavor_id
,
service_instance_user
and service_instance_password
are with
reference to the service image that is used by the driver to create
share servers. A sample service image for use with the generic
driver is available in the manila-image-elements
project. Its
creation is explained in the post installation steps (See:
Creating and using shared file systems).
