Hello,
We configured Copy Offload and see the tool is working between Cinder and Glance. (Ontap - Edge cDOT 8.3 - NFS ; OpenStack Kilo Release).
The question is regarding creation of an instance by using an image (Glance) or volume (Cinder). Seems The VM (instance) is ready only after coping data, probably between cinder and compute nodes.
In the environemnt there are 2 compute servers, 1 cinder server and 1 controller server with nova services.
It seems that because cinder mounts are on one server, and compute services on another server, the communication between them is done by copying the data between the servers.
Any recommendation how to resolve it ? Should the compute servers be mounted to the cinder volumes as well ?
Thanks
