RBD Kernel Object Operations
==============================
.. important:: To use kernel object operations, you must have a running Ceph cluster.
Add a Block Device
------------------
To add an RBD image as a kernel object, first load the Ceph RBD module::
modprobe rbd
Map the RBD image to the kernel object with ``add``, specifying the IP address
of the monitor, the user name, and the RBD image name as follows::
echo "{mon-ip-address} name={user-name} rbd {image-name}" | sudo tee /sys/bus/rbd/add
For example::
echo "10.20.30.40 name=admin rbd foo" | sudo tee /sys/bus/rbd/add
If you use ``cephx`` authentication, you must also specify a secret. ::
echo "10.20.30.40 name=admin,secret=/path/to/secret rbd foo" | sudo tee /sys/bus/rbd/add
A kernel block device resides under the ``/sys/bus/rbd/devices`` directory and
provides the following functions:
+------------------+------------------------------------------------------------+
| Function | Description |
+==================+============================================================+
| ``client_id`` | Returns the client ID of the given device ID. |
+------------------+------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``create_snap`` | Creates a snap from a snap name and a device ID. |
+------------------+------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``current_snap`` | Returns the most recent snap for the given device ID. |
+------------------+------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``major`` | |
+------------------+------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``name`` | Returns the RBD image name of the device ID. |
+------------------+------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``pool`` | Returns the pool source of the device ID. |
+------------------+------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``refresh`` | Refreshes the given device with the SDs. |
+------------------+------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``size`` | Returns the size of the device. |
+------------------+------------------------------------------------------------+
| ``uevent`` | |
+------------------+------------------------------------------------------------+
List Block Devices
------------------
Images are mounted as devices sequentially starting from ``0``. To list the
devices mounted, execute the following::
ls /sys/bus/rbd/devices
Removing a Block Device
-----------------------
To remove an RBD image, specify its index and use ``tee`` to call ``remove`` as
follows, but replace ``{device-number}`` with the number of the device you want
to remove::
echo {device-number} | sudo tee /sys/bus/rbd/remove
Creating a Snapshot
-------------------
To create a snapshot of a device, you must specify the device number. ::
echo sn1 | sudo tee /sys/bus/rbd/devices/0{device-number}/create_snap
