Chapter 4. Deploying the Shared File Systems service with NetApp back ends

This section describes how to use the /home/stack/templates/netapp-config.yaml environment file to orchestrate the configuration of your NetApp back end.

After you create the /home/stack/templates/netapp-config.yaml, environment file, log in as the stack user on the undercloud and deploy the configured back end by running:

$ source ~/stackrc
$ openstack overcloud deploy --templates -e /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/manila-netapp-config.yaml -e /home/stack/templates/netapp-config.yaml

The /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/manila-netapp-config.yaml file is the default heat template provided with the director to deploy NetApp back ends for the Shared File System service. The /home/stack/templates/netapp-config.yaml file that you create in Chapter 3, Creating the NetApp back end environment file applies your custom configuration on top of the configuration in the default heat template.

Important

If you passed any extra environment files when you created the overcloud, pass them again here using the -e option to avoid making undesired changes to the overcloud. For more information, see Modifying the Overcloud Environment in the Director Installation and Usage guide.

Test the back end after director orchestration is complete.
