Manila in Kolla
===============

Overview
Currently, Kolla can deploy following manila services:

* manila-api
* manila-data
* manila-scheduler
* manila-share

The OpenStack Shared File Systems service (Manila) provides file storage to a
virtual machine. The Shared File Systems service provides an infrastructure
for managing and provisioning of file shares. The service also enables
management of share types as well as share snapshots if a driver supports
them.

Important

For simplicity, this guide describes configuring the Shared File Systems
service to use the ``generic`` back end with the driver handles share
server mode (DHSS) enabled that uses Compute (nova), Networking (neutron)
and Block storage (cinder) services.
Networking service configuration requires the capability of networks being
attached to a public router in order to create shared networks.

Before you proceed, ensure that Compute, Networking and Block storage
services are properly working.

Preparation and Deployment

Cinder and Ceph are required, enable it in ``/etc/kolla/globals.yml``:

.. code-block:: console

   enable_cinder: "yes"
   enable_ceph: "yes"

.. end
Enable Manila and generic back end in ``/etc/kolla/globals.yml``:

.. code-block:: console

   enable_manila: "yes"
   enable_manila_backend_generic: "yes"

.. end

By default Manila uses instance flavor id 100 for its file systems. For Manila
to work, either create a new nova flavor with id 100 (use *nova flavor-create*)
or change *service_instance_flavor_id* to use one of the default nova flavor
ids.
Ex: *service_instance_flavor_id = 2* to use nova default flavor ``m1.small``.

Create or modify the file ``/etc/kolla/config/manila-share.conf`` and add the
contents:

.. code-block:: console

   [generic]
   service_instance_flavor_id = 2

.. end
Verify Operation

Verify operation of the Shared File Systems service. List service components
to verify successful launch of each process:

.. code-block:: console

   # manila service-list

   |      Binary      |    Host        | Zone |  Status | State |         Updated_at         | Disabled Reason |

Launch an Instance

Mauricio Lima committed
Before being able to create a share, the manila with the generic driver and the
DHSS mode enabled requires the definition of at least an image, a network and a
share-network for being used to create a share server. For that back end

configuration, the share server is an instance where NFS/CIFS shares are
served.

Determine the configuration of the share server
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Create a default share type before running manila-share service:

.. code-block:: console

   # manila type-create default_share_type True

   +--------------------------------------+--------------------+------------+------------+-------------------------------------+-------------------------+
   | ID                                   | Name               | Visibility | is_default | required_extra_specs                | optional_extra_specs    |
   +--------------------------------------+--------------------+------------+------------+-------------------------------------+-------------------------+
   | 8a35da28-0f74-490d-afff-23664ecd4f01 | default_share_type | public     | -          | driver_handles_share_servers : True | snapshot_support : True |
   +--------------------------------------+--------------------+------------+------------+-------------------------------------+-------------------------+

.. end

Create a manila share server image to the Image service:

.. code-block:: console

.. end

Create a folder where the mount will be placed:

.. code-block:: console

   # mkdir ~/test_folder

.. end

Mount the NFS share in the instance using the export location of the share:

.. code-block:: console

   # mount -v 10.254.0.3:/shares/share-422dc546-8f37-472b-ac3c-d23fe410d1b6 ~/test_folder

.. end
Share Migration

As administrator, you can migrate a share with its data from one location to
another in a manner that is transparent to users and workloads. You can use
manila client commands to complete a share migration.

For share migration, is needed modify ``manila.conf`` and set a ip in the same
provider network for ``data_node_access_ip``.

Modify the file ``/etc/kolla/config/manila.conf`` and add the contents:

.. path /etc/kolla/config/manila.conf
.. code-block:: ini
   [DEFAULT]
   data_node_access_ip = 10.10.10.199
   Share migration requires have more than one back end configured.
   For details, see :ref:`hnas_configure_multiple_back_ends`.

Use the manila migration command, as shown in the following example:

.. code-block:: console

   # manila migration-start --preserve-metadata True|False \
     --writable True|False --force_host_assisted_migration True|False \
     --new_share_type share_type --new_share_network share_network \
     shareID destinationHost

.. end

- ``--force-host-copy``: Forces the generic host-based migration mechanism and
  bypasses any driver optimizations.
- ``destinationHost``: Is in this format ``host#pool`` which includes
  destination host and pool.
- ``--writable`` and ``--preserve-metadata``: Are only for driver assisted.
- ``--new_share_network``: Only if driver supports shared network.
- ``--new_share_type``: Choose share type compatible with destinationHost.

Checking share migration progress
---------------------------------

Use the :command:`manila migration-get-progress shareID` command to check progress.

.. code-block:: console

   # manila migration-get-progress demo-share1

   +----------------+-----------------------+
   | Property       | Value                 |
   +----------------+-----------------------+
   | task_state     | data_copying_starting |
   | total_progress | 0                     |
   +----------------+-----------------------+

   # manila migration-get-progress demo-share1
   +----------------+-------------------------+
   | Property       | Value                   |
   +----------------+-------------------------+
   | task_state     | data_copying_completing |
   | total_progress | 100                     |
   +----------------+-------------------------+

.. end

Use the :command:`manila migration-complete shareID` command to complete share
migration process.
