Quobyte driver
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
The `Quobyte <http://www.quobyte.com/>`__ volume driver enables storing Block
|
|
Storage service volumes on a Quobyte storage back end. Block Storage service
|
|
back ends are mapped to Quobyte volumes and individual Block Storage service
|
|
volumes are stored as files on a Quobyte volume. Selection of the appropriate
|
|
Quobyte volume is done by the aforementioned back end configuration that
|
|
specifies the Quobyte volume explicitly.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Note the dual use of the term ``volume`` in the context of Block Storage
|
|
service volumes and in the context of Quobyte volumes.
