ceph-mds -- ceph metadata server daemon

Synopsis
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
| **ceph-mds** -i *name* [ --hot-standby [*rank*] ]
|
|
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
**ceph-mds** is the metadata server daemon for the Ceph distributed file
|
|
system. One or more instances of ceph-mds collectively manage the file
|
|
system namespace, coordinating access to the shared OSD cluster.
|
|
|
|
Each ceph-mds daemon instance should have a unique name. The name is used
|
|
to identify daemon instances in the ceph.conf.
|
|
|
|
Once the daemon has started, the monitor cluster will normally assign
|
|
it a logical rank, or put it in a standby pool to take over for
|
|
another daemon that crashes. Some of the specified options can cause
|
|
other behaviors.
|
|
|
|
If you specify hot-standby, you must either specify the rank on the command
|
|
line, or specify one of the mds_standby_for_[rank|name] parameters in the
|
|
config. The command line specification overrides the config, and specifying
|
|
the rank overrides specifying the name.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Options
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -f, --foreground
|
|
|
|
Foreground: do not daemonize after startup (run in foreground). Do
|
|
not generate a pid file. Useful when run via :doc:`ceph-run
|
|
<ceph-run>`\(8).
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -d
|
|
|
|
Debug mode: like ``-f``, but also send all log output to stderr.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --setuser userorgid
|
|
|
|
Set uid after starting. If a username is specified, the user
|
|
record is looked up to get a uid and a gid, and the gid is also set
|
|
as well, unless --setgroup is also specified.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --setgroup grouporgid
|
|
|
|
Set gid after starting. If a group name is specified the group
|
|
record is looked up to get a gid.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -c ceph.conf, --conf=ceph.conf
|
|
|
|
Use *ceph.conf* configuration file instead of the default
|
|
``/etc/ceph/ceph.conf`` to determine monitor addresses during
|
|
startup.
|
|
|
|
.. option:: -m monaddress[:port]
|
|
|
|
Connect to specified monitor (instead of looking through
|
|
``ceph.conf``).
|
|
|
|
.. option:: --hot-standby <rank>
|
|
|
|
Start as a hot standby for MDS <rank>.
|
|
