Shared File Systems Option 2: Driver support for share servers management

For simplicity, this configuration references the same storage node configuration for the Block Storage service.

Note

This guide describes how to configure the Shared File Systems service to use the generic driver with the driver handles share server mode (DHSS) enabled. This mode requires Compute (nova), Networking (neutron) and Block storage (cinder) services for managing share servers. The information used for creating share servers is configured as share networks. Generic driver with DHSS enabled also requires network to be attached to a public router.
