So far so good.On the same machine I have configured a /home directory with 1 terabyte for storing my images and when I open openstack dashboard , I cant seem to find a way to reference it ,how can I add that filesystem as my storage for my VMs My filestystem is as follows [root@cumulonimbus ~]# df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/vg_cumulonimbus-lv_root -------------------------------------------on open stack dashboard ,it seems to recognize this only 50G 2.6G 45G 6% / tmpfs 1.9G 4.0K 1.9G 1% /dev/shm /dev/sda1 477M 49M 403M 11% /boot /dev/mapper/vg_cumulonimbus-lv_home 351G 67M 333G 1% /home /srv/loopback-device/swiftloopback 1.9G 3.0M 1.8G 1% /srv/node/swiftloopback [root@cumulonimbus ~]# _______________________________________________ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Sounds like you're looking for instances path? In other words the location you want the qcow files for the instances to live? That's set up in the nova.conf file as: instances_path Check out the docs page here and see if that helps. Items like conf settings don't show up in the dashboard by the way. http://docs.openstack.org/juno/config-reference/content/section_compute-config-samples.html Thanks, John thank you john , managed to read the doc you sent me and what i wanted seem to have worked ,let me get my hands dirty on youtube videos and any docs that can help me before i scale out my all_in one packstack _______________________________________________ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack
