Installation of LeoFS distributed fault-tolerant object storage compatible with clients using S3, NFS
According to open net: LeoFS β distributed fault-tolerant storage of objects LeoFS, which is compatible with clients using the Amazon S3 API and REST-API, and supports NFS server mode. There are optimizations for storing both small and very large objects, there is a built-in caching mechanism, storage replication between data centers is possible. Among the goals of the project is the achievement of reliability of 99.9999999% due to redundant replication of duplicates and elimination of a single point of failure. The project code is written in Erlang.
LeoFS consists of three components:
LeoFS Storage - Serves the operations of adding, retrieving and deleting objects and metadata, is responsible for performing replication, restoration and queuing of client requests.
LeoFS Gateway - serves HTTP requests and redirects responses to clients using REST-API or S3-API, caches the most requested data in memory and on disk.
LeoFS Manager - monitors the operation of the LeoFS Gateway and LeoFS Storage nodes, monitors the state of the nodes and checks the checksums. Ensures data integrity and storage high availability.
In this post, we will install Leofs using ansible-playbook, test S3, NFS.
If you try to install LeoFS using the official playbooks, you will get different errors: 1,2. In this post I will write what needs to be done to avoid these errors.
Where you will run ansible-playbook, you need to install netcat.

Server preparation
Disable Selinux. Hopefully the community will create Selinux policies for LeoFS.
- name: Install libselinux as prerequisite for SELinux Ansible module
yum:
name: "{{item}}"
state: latest
with_items:
- libselinux-python
- libsemanage-python
- name: Disable SELinux at next reboot
selinux:
state: disabled
- name: Set SELinux in permissive mode until the machine is rebooted
command: setenforce 0
ignore_errors: true
changed_when: false
Installation netcat ΠΈ redhat-lsb-core. netcat needed for leofs-adm, redhat-lsb-core needed to determine the OS version here.
Primary and Secondary can be seen in ansible-playbook logs
The output will be something like this

In the HTTP Proxy server name specify the IP of the Gateway server
s3cmd --configure
Enter new values or accept defaults in brackets with Enter.
Refer to user manual for detailed description of all options.
Access key and Secret key are your identifiers for Amazon S3. Leave them empty for using the env variables.
Access Key [9c2615f32e81e6a1caf5]:
Secret Key [8aaaa35c1ad78a2cbfa1a6cd49ba8aaeb3ba39eb]:
Default Region [US]:
Use "s3.amazonaws.com" for S3 Endpoint and not modify it to the target Amazon S3.
S3 Endpoint [s3.amazonaws.com]:
Use "%(bucket)s.s3.amazonaws.com" to the target Amazon S3. "%(bucket)s" and "%(location)s" vars can be used
if the target S3 system supports dns based buckets.
DNS-style bucket+hostname:port template for accessing a bucket [%(bucket)s.s3.amazonaws.com]: leofs
Encryption password is used to protect your files from reading
by unauthorized persons while in transfer to S3
Encryption password:
Path to GPG program [/usr/bin/gpg]:
When using secure HTTPS protocol all communication with Amazon S3
servers is protected from 3rd party eavesdropping. This method is
slower than plain HTTP, and can only be proxied with Python 2.7 or newer
Use HTTPS protocol [No]:
On some networks all internet access must go through a HTTP proxy.
Try setting it here if you can't connect to S3 directly
HTTP Proxy server name [172.26.9.180]:

Then you need to change signature_v3 to True in the s2cmd config. Details in this issue.
If signature_v2 is False, then the following error will occur:

We activate NFS on the Leo Gateway server 172.26.9.184.
Install nfs-utils on the server and client
sudo yum install nfs-utils
Correct the configuration file according to the instructions /usr/local/leofs/current/leo_gateway/etc/leo_gateway.conf

On server 172.26.9.184, run rpcbind and leofs-gateway
sudo service rpcbind start
sudo service leofs-gateway restart
On the server where leo_manager is running, create a bucket for NFS and generate a key to connect to NFS
