Hi list,

I'm trying to understand how manila use NFS-Ganesha, and hope to figure out 
what I need to do to use it if all patches been merged (only one patch is under 
reviewing,  right ?).

I have read:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Manila/Networking/Gateway_mediated
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/manila/+spec/gateway-mediated-with-ganesha

>From documents, it is said, within Ganesha, multi-tenancy would be supported:
And later the Ganesha core would be extended to use the infrastructure used by 
generic driver to provide network separated multi-tenancy. The core would 
manage Ganesha service running in the service VMs, and the VMs themselves that 
reside in share networks.


ð  it is said : extended to use the infrastructure used by generic driver to 
provide network separated multi-tenancy
So, when user create a share, a VM (share-server) would be created to run 
Ganesha-server.

ð  I assume this VM should connect the 2 networks : user's share-network and 
the network where Glusterfs cluster is running.

But, in generic driver, it create a manila service network at beginning.
When user create a share, a "subnet" would be created in manila service network 
corresponding to each user's "share-network":
This means every VM(share-server) generic driver has created are living in 
different subnets, they're not able to connect to each other.

If my understanding here is correct, the VMs that running Ganesha are living 
the different subnets too.

ð  Here is my question:
How VMs(share-servers) running Ganesha be able to connect to the single 
Glusterfs cluster ?

Looking forward to hear from you.

Thanks.
