I think it's not possible to do that without any changes to the nova-volume code at the moment. We opened a report for this missing feature a long time ago: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/715102. But we had no time to finish the implementation.

Re: [Openstack] NFS for nova-volume
We have developed a QEMUDriver for stable/diablo, sadly the essex build is still broken. We are a bit overwhelmed, and we would like to contribute it in the future (gue rivero will help us with Gerrit). Still, if anybody wants to test it in stable/diablo, we are more than open to help him to use it.

Re: [Openstack] NFS for nova-volume
We're running our nova-volumes VG on a Netapp mapped LUN to the nova-volume server. But if youre looking for a more clean solution actually several vendors like Nexenta have their own drivers for nova-volume to use, so a volume create instruction will end up on a lun creation and mapping to the virtual instances. Actually netapp is planing to release this to Folsom1 but always talking about block storage. nova-volume is a block storage solution Amazon EBS like , i dont know if there's plans to suppor creation and mapping of a volume as an NFS resource, i think that if you need nfs volume mapping at boot time you can insert the correct mount lines via metadata Best Lean On Mon, Feb 13, 2012 at 10:21 PM, Salman A Baset saba...@us.ibm.com wrote: Hello folks, I was wondering if anyone has tried setting up nova-volume on NFS backend without making any changes to nova-volume code?
