Manila share features support mapping¶

Here we provide information on support of different share features by different share drivers.

Column values contain the OpenStack release letter when a feature was added to the driver. Column value “?” means that this field requires an update with current information. Column value “-” means that this feature is not currently supported.

Note

The common capability reported by back ends differs from some names seen in the above table:

DHSS is reported as driver_handles_share_servers (See details for DHSS)
create share from snapshot is reported as create_share_from_snapshot_support
multiple subnets per AZ is reported as multiple_subnets_per_availability_zone
