The NetApp NFS configuration for 7-Mode Data ONTAP is an interface from OpenStack to 7-Mode storage system for provisioning and managing OpenStack volumes on NFS exports provided by the 7-Mode storage system which can then be accessed using NFS protocol.
The NFS configuration for 7-Mode Data ONTAP does not require any additional management software to achieve the desired functionality. It uses NetApp APIs to interact with the 7-Mode storage system.
Set the volume driver, storage family and
storage protocol to NetApp unified driver, 7-Mode
Data ONTAP and NFS respectively by setting the
volume_driver,
netapp_storage_family and
netapp_storage_protocol
options in cinder.conf as
follows:
volume_driver=cinder.volume.drivers.netapp.common.NetAppDriver
netapp_storage_family=ontap_7mode
netapp_storage_protocol=nfs
See OpenStack NetApp community for detailed information on available configuration options.
