Re: [rdo-dev] Cinder NFS backend issue

Hi Tzach, Thank you for getting back! I tested it again with CinderNfsMountOptions: 'rw,sync,nosharecache' in Queens, but still to no avail. I also noticed that the file /etc/cinder/nfs_shares does not exist on any controller, although in cinder.conf it has "#nfs_shares_config = /etc/cinder/nfs_shares". I am not sure if this is normal for using NFS with the containerized cinder service.

Iptables is set accordingly. The /etc/exportfs on the NFS server is as follows: >> >> /export/nova 192.168.24.0/24(rw,no_root_squash) >> /export/glance 192.168.24.0/24(rw,no_root_squash) >> /export/cinder 192.168.24.0/24(rw,no_root_squash) >> >> All three folders are set to chmod 777. Nova and Glance work as expected. Only Cinder remains problematic. I can try to upload volumes from overcloud, but nothing would show up in the cinder folder. Also Horizon gives errors like unable to retrieve volume and volume snapshots. Did I miss something here? I do plan to use Ceph later, but I wish to use NFS for now to test migration and failover. Any helps would be appreciated.
