openstackcinder

Is there anyway for OpenStack to attach a physical disk directly?

I have a 2TB HDD, and I need to attach it to an instance directly. However, I don't know how to operate.

PS: I am not seeking for a method to add this HDD into "cinder-volumes".

Solution

  • Have you checked "BDD" driver.. I'm still not sure about your question.. can you explain more..
