The roles would be iscsi( or some other block device), nfs, smb/cifs. all
managed and configured using cockpit, a user could carve up the attached disk,
be able to alloacte nfs or smb/cifs or export some raw space as a block
device, for use in vms etc.
Making setting up a Samba server, NFS server or a ISCSI server (target)
easier would be awesome.
I think it would be good to start with SMB/NFS/ISCSI client
configuration in Cockpit though.
To walk before running so to say.
For ISCSI client (initiator), there is a spec and some mockups, but no
code yet. [1]
Nothing for NFS yet, but it would be cool to tackle soon.
As I mentioned in the IRC meeting. If someone is really eager implement
the code for the server parts first, I'm happy to help with the design.
