Preface

Red Hat OpenStack Platform (Red Hat OpenStack Platform) provides the foundation to build a private or public Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud on top of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. It offers a massively scalable, fault-tolerant platform for the development of cloud-enabled workloads.

The Shared File System service (manila) with Ceph File System (CephFS) via NFS enables cloud administrators to use the same Ceph cluster used for block and object storage to provide file shares via the NFS protocol. See the Shared File System service chapter in the Storage Guide for additional information.

This guide discusses concepts and procedures related to installing, configuring, deploying, and testing CephFS via NFS.
