AFAIR cinder needs to interact with nova to complete snapshot in nfs backend. Did you configure the [nova] options in your cinder.conf ? If you did then it'd be probably helpful if you can share the options configured in that block. I expect the section may have options in the following example. --- [nova] auth_type = password auth_url = <url of your keystone endpoint> username = nova user_domain_name = Default project_name = service project_domain_name = Default password = <password of nova user> --- # you can use cinder user instead of nova user
Thank you Takashi. Yes, I do have the [nova] options configured. The only option I don't have that you have listed is the auth_type. This is what I have for the [nova] section: [nova] auth_url=http://10.61.157.80:5000 username=nova user_domain_name=Default password=XXXXXX project_name=services project_domain_name=Default And, I can report success after adding in the auth_type=password. After making that change, and restarting, the snapshot creation when using nfs as the backend is successful! Thank you!
