Configuring OpenStack Object Storage – storage services
The account server lists the available containers on our nodes. The container servers contain object servers seen in our OpenStack Object Storage environment. The object server contains the actual objects seen in our OpenStack Object Storage environment. The following steps must be conducted on all of the storage nodes in our environment.
Getting ready
Ensure that you are logged in to the swift storage nodes. If you created these nodes with vagrant, you will carry out these actions on all five storage nodes. You can access each by issuing the following commands:
vagrant ssh swift-01 vagrant ssh swift-02 vagrant ssh swift-03 vagrant ssh swift-04 vagrant ssh swift-05
How to do it...
For this recipe, we're creating four different account server configuration files that differ only in the port that the service will run on and the path on our single disk that corresponds to that service on that particular port. To create the configuration files...
