As agreed in weekly manila community meetings and at the Queens PTG, several documents currently presented to contributors are really of general interest to cloud administrators and should be presented accordingly. Move the docs on manila back ends, the feature support mapping, capabilities and extra specs, and export locations and metatdata to the admin section.

Isilon Driver
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
The EMC manila driver framework (EMCShareDriver) utilizes EMC storage products
|
|
to provide shared filesystems to OpenStack. The EMC manila driver is a plugin
|
|
based driver which is designed to use different plugins to manage different EMC
|
|
storage products.
|
|
|
|
The Isilon manila driver is a plugin for the EMC manila driver framework which
|
|
allows manila to interface with an Isilon backend to provide a shared
|
|
filesystem. The EMC driver framework with the Isilon plugin is referred to as
|
|
the "Isilon Driver" in this document.
|
|
|
|
This Isilon Driver interfaces with an Isilon cluster via the REST Isilon
|
|
Platform API (PAPI) and the RESTful Access to Namespace API (RAN).
|
|
|
|
Requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
- Isilon cluster running OneFS 7.2 or higher
|
|
|
|
Supported Operations
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
The following operations are supported on an Isilon cluster:
|
|
|
|
* Create CIFS/NFS Share
|
|
* Delete CIFS/NFS Share
|
|
* Allow CIFS/NFS Share access
|
|
* Only IP access type is supported for NFS and CIFS
|
|
* Only RW access supported
|
|
* Deny CIFS/NFS Share access
|
|
* Create snapshot
|
|
* Delete snapshot
|
|
* Create share from snapshot
|
|
* Extend share
|
|
|
|
Backend Configuration
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
The following parameters need to be configured in the manila configuration file
|
|
for the Isilon driver:
|
|
|
|
* share_driver = manila.share.drivers.dell_emc.driver.EMCShareDriver
|
|
* driver_handles_share_servers = False
|
|
* emc_share_backend = isilon
|
|
* emc_nas_server = <IP address of Isilon cluster>
|
|
* emc_nas_server_port = <port to use for Isilon cluster (optional)>
|
|
* emc_nas_login = <username>
|
|
* emc_nas_password = <password>
|
|
* emc_nas_root_dir = <root directory path to create shares (e.g./ifs/manila)>
|
|
|
|
Restart of :term:`manila-share` service is needed for the configuration changes to take
|
|
effect.
|
|
|
|
Restrictions
|
|
