<title>Adding Block Storage Nodes</title>
<para>To offer more storage to your tenant's VMs, add another volume node running cinder services. Install the required packages for cinder. Creat a volume group called cinder-volumes (configurable using the cinder_volume parameter in <filename>cinder.conf</filename>). Configure tgtd with its targets.conf file and start the tgtd service. Connect the node to the cinder database by configuring the <filename>cinder.conf</filename> file with the connection information. Make sure the iscsi_ip_address setting in cinder.conf matches the public IP of the node you're installing, then restart the cinder services. When you issue a <command>cinder-manage host list</command> command you should see the new volume node listed. If not, look at the logs in <filename>/var/log/cinder/volume.log</filename> for issues. </para>
