Tintri

To configure the use of a Tintri VMstore with Block Storage, perform the following actions:

1. Edit the etc/cinder/cinder.conf file and set the cinder.volume.drivers.tintri options:

   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
   
   #
   # 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

2. Edit the etc/nova/nova.conf file, and set the nfs_mount_options:

   nfs_mount_options=vers=3

3. 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:

   {vmstore_data_ip}:/tintri/{submount1}
   {vmstore_data_ip}:/tintri/{submount2}
