Storage SMB driver not working.
Hi everyone,
I have a controller based on Ubuntu 14.04 and one windows 2016 with hyper-v which is compute and storage. I am trying to get the SMB driver to work but I get to a point where there are no errors but still do not work. I have installed the driver to my hyper-v node and created a share. I have verified that the share is accessible from my controller node by mounting the share on the controller. if I do a cinder service-list on my controller I can see that I have a cinder volume on my hyper-v and it is up and running together with a cinder-scheduler on the controller. Now to my errors. If I type “cinder create 1” on the controller or try to create a volume from horizon the volume gets stuck at creating. There is not log at all on the controllers cinder-scheduler.log nor on the hyper-v cinder log. Cinder-api.log on controller has some logs that all is successful (no errors or warnings). And there is a new entry in the cinder mysql database. I have tried to restart the services many times. If I restart the smb driver it notices that there is a volume stuck at creating so it sets it to error. If I change that do deleting smb driver will delete it at next restart. If I in horizon create a new Volume type with correct volume backend name it behaves the exact same way. However, if I create a false one and creates a volume to it i get errors directly and I get logs in the cinder-scheduler.log on the controller.
What am I missing to get this working?
Forgot to mention that i use Mitaka release of controller and storage driver.
