[gpfsug-discuss] Mounting GPFS data on OpenStack VM

UG,

I have a GPFS filesystem.

I have a OpenStack private cloud.

What is the best way for Nova Compute VMs to have access to data inside the
GPFS filesystem?

1)Should VMs mount GPFS directly with a GPFS client?
2) Should the hypervisor mount GPFS and share to nova computes?
3) Should I create GPFS protocol servers that allow nova computes to mount
of NFS?

All advice is welcome.


Best,
