Tintri VMstore is a smart storage that sees, learns, and adapts for cloud and
|
|
virtualization. The Tintri Block Storage driver interacts with configured
|
|
VMstore running Tintri OS 4.0 and above. It supports various operations using
|
|
Tintri REST APIs and NFS protocol.
|
|
|
|
To configure the use of a Tintri VMstore with Block Storage, perform the
|
|
following actions:
|
|
|
|
#. Edit the ``etc/cinder/cinder.conf`` file and set the
|
|
``cinder.volume.drivers.tintri`` options:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: ini
|
|
|
|
volume_driver=cinder.volume.drivers.tintri.TintriDriver
|
|
# Mount options passed to the nfs client. See section of the
|
|
# nfs man page for details. (string value)
|
|
nfs_mount_options = vers=3,lookupcache=pos,nolock
|
|
|
|
#
|
|
# Options defined in cinder.volume.drivers.tintri
|
|
#
|
|
|
|
# The hostname (or IP address) for the storage system (string
|
|
# value)
|
|
tintri_server_hostname = {Tintri VMstore Management IP}
|
|
|
|
# User name for the storage system (string value)
|
|
tintri_server_username = {username}
|
|
|
|
# Password for the storage system (string value)
|
|
tintri_server_password = {password}
|
|
|
|
# API version for the storage system (string value)
|
|
# tintri_api_version = v310
|
|
|
|
# Following options needed for NFS configuration
|
|
# File with the list of available nfs shares (string value)
|
|
# nfs_shares_config = /etc/cinder/nfs_shares
|
|
|
|
# Tintri driver will clean up unused image snapshots. With the following
|
|
# option, users can configure how long unused image snapshots are
|
|
# retained. Default retention policy is 30 days
|
|
# tintri_image_cache_expiry_days = 30
|
|
|
|
# Path to NFS shares file storing images.
|
|
# Users can store Glance images in the NFS share of the same VMstore
|
|
# mentioned in the following file. These images need to have additional
|
|
# metadata ``provider_location`` configured in Glance, which should point
|
|
# to the NFS share path of the image.
|
|
# This option will enable Tintri driver to directly clone from Glance
|
|
# image stored on same VMstore (rather than downloading image
|
|
# from Glance)
|
|
# tintri_image_shares_config = <Path to image NFS share>
|
|
#
|
|
# For example:
|
|
# Glance image metadata
|
|
# provider_location =>
|
|
# nfs://<data_ip>/tintri/glance/84829294-c48b-4e16-a878-8b2581efd505
|
|
|
|
#. Edit the ``/etc/nova/nova.conf`` file and set the ``nfs_mount_options``:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: ini
|
|
|
|
[libvirt]
|
|
nfs_mount_options = vers=3,nolock
|
|
|
|
#. Edit the ``/etc/cinder/nfs_shares`` file and add the Tintri VMstore mount
|
|
points associated with the configured VMstore management IP in the
|
|
``cinder.conf`` file:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
{vmstore_data_ip}:/tintri/{submount1}
|
|
{vmstore_data_ip}:/tintri/{submount2}
|
|
|
|
|

.. include:: ../../tables/cinder-tintri.inc
