[Bug 1657202] Re: OpenStack not installed with consistent uid/gid for glance/cinder/nova users

[Nobuto Murata]

Excuse me for reviving an old bug report, but Gnocchi also requires a
static uid/gid to support NFS use case.

Bug description:
  For a shared/clustered filesystem (GPFS) backend, one of the
  requirement is to have a common uid/gid for nova/cinder/glance users
  across all nodes when nova/cinder/glance services are deployed. This
  is typically required in HA environment where these services run on
  more than one units. This is to have required  minimal permissions to
  the directories which are accessed by these services. Otherwise, we
  have to set 777 permissions on these directories to make things work.
