By default, we have different passwords for the ScaleIO Gateway and the MDM.

Which one should we mention in the config file for cinder? I have not created a separate user for cinder.

Thanks.

Hello,

Looking at your cinder config, specifically this line:

volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.emc.scaleio.ScaleIODriver

This may need to be updated to this:

volume_driver = cinder.volume.drivers.dell_emc.scaleio.driver.ScaleIODriver

You can confirm this by navigating to this directory on your cinder node:

/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/cinder/volume/drivers/

Look to see if there is a "dell_emc" or "emc" directory. Based on this, this should be your parameter you use for your volume_driver.

Note that this path may vary due to your OS.

Openstack talks through your ScaleIO Gateway, but will need to use your ScaleIO MDM credentials.

I used the MDM password, and it worked. I also check this by using rest calls, which didn't work with Gateway's Admin password, the same worked with the MDM's password.

Hi David,

I used the same path for the driver.

So we need to use the MDM credentials and Gateway's IP in the ScaleIO configuration group added in the cinder.conf file.

hi everyone . I wanted to know in integration of openstack newton with scaleio which document to follow or where can i find some tested steps for complete implementation of newton and scaleio

and if anyone has documented any steps for this process ,then please can you provide me.

Because the steps given on openstack page and scaleio guide are completely different.
