# Vawlt Vawlt enables the **creation of virtual storage services** adapted to customers’ specifications, which are **easy to integrate** with both new or existing data storage strategies. The **data is stored in multiple cloud providers** simultaneously, ensuring levels of **security** and **reliability** unmatched by any other storage solution in the market. Stoware can use Vawlt as its backup destination. It can be configured via UI as a **non-synthetic filesystem**. In this section, we described the steps necessary to set up Vawlt storage. 1. Request a new volume in the Vawlt with **File System** interface enabled with the desired space 2. Install Vawlt client on the nodes that will have access to the Vawlt volume - follow these steps: 3. Uncomment the `user_allow_other` option in `/etc/fuse.conf` :
``` [root@rta-centos9-openstack-node ~]# cat /etc/fuse.conf # mount_max = 1000 user_allow_other ``` 4. Login with your Vawlt account:
``` vawlt cli login ``` 5. Run this command to change the mount point and allow `vprotect` user to use Vawlt volumes and confirm with `y`:
``` vawlt cli settings file-system set --mount-point /vprotect_data --allow-other-users yes ``` 6. Verify settings:
``` [root@rta-centos9-openstack-node ~]# vawlt cli settings file-system show ----------------------------------------------------- | Interface enabled | yes | | Mount-point path (parent folder) | /vprotect_data | | Allow others users (Linux only) | yes | ----------------------------------------------------- ``` 7. Verify if the user `vprotect` is able to access the volume:
``` [root@rta-centos9-openstack-node ~]# sudo -u vprotect ls -l /vprotect_data/Vawlt/ total 0 drwxrwxrwx. 1 vprotect vprotect 0 Dec 1 06:41 volume1 drwxrwxrwx. 1 vprotect vprotect 0 Aug 11 09:22 volume2 ``` 8. Add a new backup destination of type **File system.** Make sure to specify volume in the path - e.g.:
``` /vprotect_data/Vawlt/volume1 ``` More details about the Vawlt solution can be found in the official documentation:
