This charm implements Manila charm subordinate that enables and configures the Pure Storage FlashBlade share backend for use with Charmed Openstack.
Note: The manila-flashblade charm is currently in tech-preview.
To display all configuration option information run juju config <application>.
If the application is not deployed then see the charm's
[Configure tab][charm-manila-flashblade-configure] in the Charmhub.
Finally, the Juju documentation provides general
guidance on configuring applications.
The charm can be deployed through a bundle or manually like described below:
juju deploy manila --channel <channel>
juju deploy manila-flashblade --channel <channel>
juju add-relation manila-flashblade:manila-plugin manila:manila-plugin
The charm can be used to enable a Pure Storage FlashBlade backend in highly available Charmed Manila deployments. Please see example overlay bundle for such deployments in the Manila Charm Deployment Guide.
This charm supports the deferred service events feature.
Operational or maintenance procedures applied to a cloud often lead to the restarting of various OpenStack services and/or the calling of certain charm hooks. Although normal, such events can be undesirable due to the service interruptions they can cause.
The deferred service events feature provides the operator the choice of preventing these service restarts and hook calls from occurring, which can then be resolved at a more opportune time.
See Deferred service events for more information on this feature.
The OpenStack Charms project maintains two documentation guides:
- OpenStack Charm Guide: the primary source of information for OpenStack charms
- OpenStack Charms Deployment Guide: a step-by-step guide for deploying OpenStack with charms
