XtremIOFibreChannelDriver

XtremIOISCSIDriver

  • Version: 1.0.8

  • volume_driver=cinder.volume.drivers.emc.xtremio.XtremIOISCSIDriver

  • CI info: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ThirdPartySystems/EMC_XIO_CI

  • Description:

    Executes commands relating to ISCSI volumes.

    We make use of model provider properties as follows:

    provider_location

    if present, contains the iSCSI target information in the same format as an ietadm discovery i.e. ‘<ip>:<port>,<portal> <target IQN>’

    provider_auth

    if present, contains a space-separated triple: ‘<auth method> <auth username> <auth password>’. CHAP is the only auth_method in use at the moment.

DellEQLSanISCSIDriver

  • Version: 1.3.0

  • volume_driver=cinder.volume.drivers.eqlx.DellEQLSanISCSIDriver

  • CI info: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ThirdPartySystems/Dell_Storage_CI

  • Description:

    Implements commands for Dell EqualLogic SAN ISCSI management.

    To enable the driver add the following line to the cinder configuration:

    volume_driver=cinder.volume.drivers.eqlx.DellEQLSanISCSIDriver

    Driver’s prerequisites are:
    • a separate volume group set up and running on the SAN

    • SSH access to the SAN

    • a special user must be created which must be able to
      • create/delete volumes and snapshots;
      • clone snapshots into volumes;
      • modify volume access records;

    The access credentials to the SAN are provided by means of the following flags:

    san_ip=<ip_address>
    san_login=<user name>
    san_password=<user password>
    san_private_key=<file containing SSH private key>
    

    Thin provision of volumes is enabled by default, to disable it use:

    san_thin_provision=false
    

    In order to use target CHAP authentication (which is disabled by default) SAN administrator must create a local CHAP user and specify the following flags for the driver:

    use_chap_auth=True
    chap_login=<chap_login>
    chap_password=<chap_password>
    

    eqlx_group_name parameter actually represents the CLI prompt message without ‘>’ ending. E.g. if prompt looks like ‘group-0>’, then the parameter must be set to ‘group-0’

    Version history:

    1.0   - Initial driver
    1.1.0 - Misc fixes
    1.2.0 - Deprecated eqlx_cli_timeout infavor of ssh_conn_timeout
    1.3.0 - Added support for manage/unmanage volume

  • CI info: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ThirdPartySystems/Quobyte_CI

  • Description:

    Cinder driver for Quobyte USP.

    Volumes are stored as files on the mounted Quobyte volume. The hypervisor will expose them as block devices.

    Unlike other similar drivers, this driver uses exactly one Quobyte volume because Quobyte USP is a distributed storage system. To add or remove capacity, administrators can add or remove storage servers to/from the volume.

    For different types of volumes e.g., SSD vs. rotating disks, use multiple backends in Cinder.

    Note: To be compliant with the inherited RemoteFSSnapDriver, Quobyte

    volumes are also referred to as shares.

    This class enables backing up Cinder volumes to a Ceph object store. Backups may be stored in their own pool or even cluster. Store location is defined by the Ceph conf file and service config options supplied.

    If the source volume is itself an RBD volume, the backup will be performed using incremental differential backups which should give a performance gain.
