The NetApp NFS configuration for clustered Data ONTAP is an interface from OpenStack to clustered Data ONTAP system for provisioning and managing OpenStack volumes on NFS exports provided by the clustered Data ONTAP system which can then be accessed using NFS protocol.
The NFS configuration for clustered Data ONTAP does not require any additional management software to achieve the desired functionality. It uses NetApp APIs to interact with the clustered Data ONTAP.
Set the volume driver, storage family and
storage protocol to NetApp unified driver,
clustered 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_cluster
netapp_storage_protocol=nfs
See OpenStack NetApp community for detailed information on available configuration options.
