Manage shares and share types
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
Shares are file storage that instances can access. Users can
|
|
allow or deny a running instance to have access to a share at any time.
|
|
For information about using the Dashboard to create and manage shares as
|
|
an end user, see the
|
|
`OpenStack End User Guide <http://docs.openstack.org/user-guide/dashboard_manage_shares.html>`_.
|
|
|
|
As an administrative user, you can manage shares and share types for users
|
|
in various projects. You can create and delete share types, and view
|
|
or delete shares.
