The Scality SOFS volume driver interacts with configured sfused mounts.
The Scality SOFS driver manages volumes as sparse files stored on a Scality Ring through sfused. Ring connection settings and sfused options are defined in the cinder.conf file and the configuration file pointed to by the scality_sofs_config option, typically /etc/sfused.conf.
The Scality SOFS volume driver provides the following Block Storage volume operations:
Use the following instructions to update the cinder.conf configuration file:
[DEFAULT]
enabled_backends = scality-1
[scality-1]
volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.scality.ScalityDriver
volume_backend_name = scality-1
scality_sofs_config = /etc/sfused.conf
scality_sofs_mount_point = /cinder
scality_sofs_volume_dir = cinder/volumes
Use the following instructions to update the nova.conf configuration file:
[libvirt]
scality_sofs_mount_point = /cinder
scality_sofs_config = /etc/sfused.conf
Configuration option = Default value | Description |
---|---|
[DEFAULT] | |
scality_sofs_config = None | (String) Path or URL to Scality SOFS configuration file |
scality_sofs_mount_point = $state_path/scality | (String) Base dir where Scality SOFS shall be mounted |
scality_sofs_volume_dir = cinder/volumes | (String) Path from Scality SOFS root to volume dir |
