Cinder Administration
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
The OpenStack Block Storage service works through the interaction of
|
|
a series of daemon processes named ``cinder-*`` that reside
|
|
persistently on the host machine or machines. You can run all the
|
|
binaries from a single node, or spread across multiple nodes. You can
|
|
also run them on the same node as other OpenStack services.
|
|
|
|
To administer the OpenStack Block Storage service, it is helpful to
|
|
understand a number of concepts. You must make certain choices when
|
|
you configure the Block Storage service in OpenStack. The bulk of the
|
|
options come down to two choices - single node or multi-node install.
|
|
You can read a longer discussion about `Storage Decisions`_ in the
|
|
`OpenStack Operations Guide`_.
|
|
|
|
OpenStack Block Storage enables you to add extra block-level storage
|
|
to your OpenStack Compute instances. This service is similar to the
|
|
Amazon EC2 Elastic Block Storage (EBS) offering.
