Quobyte Storage for OpenStack¶
Quobyte Cinder Driver¶
To use the Quobyte
Cinder backend, enable and configure the Quobyte
Cinder driver in /etc/kolla/globals.yml
.
enable_cinder_backend_quobyte: "yes"
Also set values for quobyte_storage_host
and quobyte_storage_volume
in
/etc/kolla/globals.yml
to the hostname or IP address of the Quobyte
registry and the Quobyte volume respectively.
Since Quobyte
is proprietary software that requires a license, the use of
this backend requires the Quobyte
Client software package to be installed
in the cinder-volume
and nova-compute
containers. To do this follow the
steps outlined in the Building Container Images,
particularly the Package Customisation
and Custom Repos
sections. The
repository information is available in the Quobyte
customer portal.
