Storage¶
Note
In v3.5.2 STORAGE PROVIDERS has been split out into BUCKETS and FILE SHARES sections.
Overview¶
Infrastructure > Storage is for adding and managing Storage Buckets, File Shares, Volumes, Data Stores and Storage Servers for use with other Services in Morpheus.
Role Requirements¶
There are two Role permissions for the Infrastructure > Storage section: Infrastructure: Storage and Infrastructure: Storage Browser. Infrastructure: Storage give Full, Read or No access to the Infrastructure > Storage sections, while Infrastructure: Storage Browser is specific to Buckets and Files Shares. Full Infrastructure: Storage Browser permissions allows Buckets and Files Shares to be browsed and files and folders to be added, downloaded and deleted from the Buckets and Files Shares. Read Infrastructure: Storage Browser permissions allows Buckets and Files Shares to be browsed only.
Default Storage¶
The default Storage path for Virtual Images, Backups, Deployment Archives, Archive Service, and Archived Snapshots is var/opt/morpheus/morpheus-ui/. Its is recommended to add Storage Buckets and File Shares for these targets in the Infrastructure > Storage section to avoid running out of disk space on the Morpheus Appliance.
Storage Buckets¶
Storage Buckets are for Backup, Archives, Deployment and Virtual Images storage targets. Buckets can be browsed and files and folders can be uploaded, downloaded or deleted from the Bucket section. Retention Policies can be set on Storage Buckets for files to be deleted or backed up to another bucket after a set amount of time.
Supported Bucket Types¶
Alibaba
Amazon S3
Azure
Google Cloud Storage
Openstack Swift
Rackspace CDN

Data Stores¶
Data Stores are logical divisions of underlying storage disk. Organizations may use them to divide and track cloud resources by team or department. When integrating certain Cloud types, Morpheus will onboard all existing data stores and administrators can then make them available to Groups or Tenants as needed. At provision time, when applicable based on Cloud and Layout, users can select the data store they wish to provision to.
Here within the Data Store view in the storage section, users can see a list of data stores for each Cloud. In the row for each Cloud, the storage type, associated Cloud, and permissions information are shown.
Create Data Stores¶
To a limited extent, data stores can be created from this view. Currently, data store creation is restricted to VMware data store creation on 3Par volumes. In order to create such a data store you would need to first have an integrated 3Par server. See the section on storage servers for more information on setting up this integration.
Note
For all other data store types, create the needed data store within the target Cloud and Morpheus will automatically sync in the data store on the next Cloud sync. You can force a Cloud sync from the Cloud Detail Page (Infrastructure > Clouds > Selected Cloud > Refresh Menu > Short).
Navigate to Infrastructure > Storage > Data Stores
Click +ADD
Enter a Name, select a VMware Cloud, select a 3Par Volume, and select a Host Group
Manage permissions in the Group Access and Tenant Permissions sections, if needed
Click SAVE CHANGES
Manage Permissions¶
From this view, users can manage permissions for any data store synced from integrated Clouds. This includes setting which Groups have access to the data store, and which Tenants have access. To edit data store permissions:
Navigate to Infrastructure > Storage > Data Stores
Click ACTIONS > Edit
Groups: Select “all” Groups or select specific Groups which should have access to the data store
Tenants: Primary Tenant users can opt to make the data store available to all Tenants (public visibility) or to selected Tenants (private visibility with specific Tenants selected). Subtenant users will only be able to make data stores visible to their own Tenant
Active: When marked, the data store is active and available for provisioning
