Infortrend Driver for OpenStack Manila
======================================
The `Infortrend <http://www.infortrend.com/global>`__ Manila driver
provides NFS and CIFS shared file systems to Openstack.
Requirements
------------
- The EonStor GS/GSe series Fireware version 139A23
Supported shared filesystems and operations
-------------------------------------------
This driver supports NFS and CIFS shares.
The following operations are supported:
- Create CIFS/NFS Share
- Delete CIFS/NFS Share
- Allow CIFS/NFS Share access
* Only IP access type is supported for NFS (ro/rw).
* Only USER access type is supported for CIFS (ro/rw).
- Deny CIFS/NFS Share access
- Manage a share.
- Unmanage a share.
- Extend a share.
- Shrink a share.
Backend Configuration
---------------------
The following parameters need to be configured in the manila configuration
file for the Infortrend driver:
- `share_backend_name` = <backend name to enable>
- `share_driver` = manila.share.drivers.infortrend.driver.InfortrendNASDriver
- `driver_handles_share_servers` = False
- `infortrend_nas_ip` = <IP address for SSH access to the SAN controller>
- `infortrend_nas_user` = <username with the 'edit' role>
- `infortrend_nas_password` = <password for the user specified in infortrend_nas_user>
- `infortrend_share_pools` = <Poolname of the SAN controller>
- `infortrend_share_channels` = <Data channel for file service in SAN controller>
Share Types
-----------
When creating a share, a share type can be specified to determine where and
how the share will be created. If a share type is not specified, the
`default_share_type` set in the manila configuration file is used.
Manila requires that the share type includes the
`driver_handles_share_servers` extra-spec. This ensures that the share
will be created on a backend that supports the requested
driver_handles_share_servers (share networks) capability.
For the Infortrend driver, this must be set to False.
Back-end configuration example
------------------------------
.. code-block:: ini
[DEFAULT]
enabled_share_backends = ift-manila
enabled_share_protocols = NFS, CIFS
[ift-manila]
share_backend_name = ift-manila
share_driver = manila.share.drivers.infortrend.driver.InfortrendNASDriver
driver_handles_share_servers = False
infortrend_nas_ip = FAKE_IP
infortrend_nas_user = FAKE_USER
infortrend_nas_password = FAKE_PASS
infortrend_share_pools = pool-1, pool-2
infortrend_share_channels = 0, 1
