13.4. Configure Basic File Share Service Settings

When manually installing the File Share Service packages, the service's configuration file (namely, /etc/manila/manila.conf) will have no settings configured. You will need to manually uncomment/add and configure each setting as required.
The following code snippet is the basic configuration required for deploying the File Share Service. You can copy its contents to /etc/manila/manila.conf, replacing the necessary variables when you do:
[DEFAULT]

osapi_share_listen=0.0.0.0
sql_connection=mysql://manila:MANILADBPASS@CONTROLLERIP/manila # 1 2
api_paste_config=/etc/manila/api-paste.ini
state_path=/var/lib/manila
sql_idle_timeout=3600
storage_availability_zone=nova
rootwrap_config=/etc/manila/rootwrap.conf
auth_strategy=keystone
nova_catalog_info=compute:nova:publicURL
nova_catalog_admin_info=compute:nova:adminURL
nova_api_insecure=False
nova_admin_username=nova
nova_admin_password=NOVAADMINPASS # 3
nova_admin_tenant_name=services
nova_admin_auth_url=http://localhost:5000/v2.0
network_api_class=manila.network.neutron.neutron_network_plugin.NeutronNetworkPlugin
debug=False
verbose=True
log_dir=/var/log/manila
use_syslog=False
rpc_backend=manila.openstack.common.rpc.impl_kombu
control_exchange=openstack
amqp_durable_queues=False

[oslo_messaging_rabbit]
rabbit_ha_queues=False
rabbit_userid=guest
rabbit_password=guest
rabbit_port=5672
rabbit_use_ssl=False
rabbit_virtual_host=/
rabbit_host=CONTROLLERIP # 4
rabbit_hosts=CONTROLLERIP:5672 # 5

[oslo_concurrency]
lock_path=/tmp/manila/manila_locks
Replace the following values:

1

MANILADBPASS is the database password of the File Share Service, which you used in Section 13.5, “Create the File Share Service Database”.

2 4 5

CONTROLLERIP is the IP address of the Controller node.

3

NOVAADMINPASS is the admin password of the Compute service. This is identical to the value of nova_admin_password in /etc/neutron/neutron.conf.

Note

If you deployed OpenStack using the Director, you can also find this password in the undercloud's /home/stack/tripleo-overcloud-passwords file.
As of this release, some File Share Service settings are still defined in /etc/manila/api-paste.ini. Update this file with the following code snippet:
[filter:keystonecontext]
paste.filter_factory = manila.api.middleware.auth:ManilaKeystoneContext.factory

[filter:authtoken]
paste.filter_factory = keystoneclient.middleware.auth_token:filter_factory
service_protocol = http
service_host = localhost
service_port = 5000
auth_host = localhost
auth_port = 35357
auth_protocol = http
admin_tenant_name = services
admin_user = manila
admin_password = MANILAPASS # 1
signing_dir = /var/lib/manila
auth_uri=http://CONTROLLERIP:5000/v2.0 # 2
identity_uri=http://CONTROLLERIP:35357 # 3

1

MANILAPASS is the admin password of the manila service user (which you used in Section 13.3, “Create the File Share Service Identity Records”).

2 3

CONTROLLERIP is the IP address of the Controller node.
