cinder.conf configuration file

The cinder.conf file is installed in /etc/cinder by default. When you manually install the Block Storage service, the options in the cinder.conf file are set to default values.

This example shows a typical cinder.conf file:

[DEFAULT]
rootwrap_config=/etc/cinder/rootwrap.conf
sql_connection = mysql://cinder:openstack@192.168.127.130/cinder
api_paste_config = /etc/cinder/api-paste.ini

iscsi_helper=tgtadm
volume_name_template = volume-%s
volume_group = cinder-volumes
verbose = True
auth_strategy = keystone
#osapi_volume_listen_port=5900

# Add these when not using the defaults.
rabbit_host = 10.10.10.10
rabbit_port = 5672
rabbit_userid = rabbit
rabbit_password = secure_password
rabbit_virtual_host = /nova
