|
|
[ \fB\-m\fI monaddr\fR ]
|
|
[ \fB\-p\fP | \fB\-\-pool\fI pool\fR ]

|
[ \fIcommand ...\fR ]

|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B rbd
|
|
is a utility for manipulating rados block device (RBD) images, used by the Linux
|
|
rbd driver and the rbd storage driver for Qemu/KVM. RBD images are
|
|
simple block devices that are striped over objects and stored in a RADOS object store.
|
|
The size of the objects the image is striped over must be a power of two.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-c\fI ceph.conf\fR, \fB\-\-conf \fIceph.conf\fR
|
|
Use \fIceph.conf\fP configuration file instead of the default \fI/etc/ceph/ceph.conf\fP
|
|
to determine monitor addresses during startup.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-m\fI monaddress[:port]\fR
|
|
Connect to specified monitor (instead of looking through \fIceph.conf\fR).
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-p\fI pool\fR, \fB\-\-pool \fIpool\fR
|
|
Interact with the given \fIpool\fP. Required by most commands.
|
|
.SH PARAMETERS
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-\-size \fIsize-in-mb\fP
|
|
Specifies the size (in megabytes) of the new rbd image.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-\-order \fIbits\fP
|
|
Specifies the object size expressed as a number of bits, such that the object size is 1 << \fIorder\fR. The default is 22 (4 MB).
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-\-snap \fIsnap\fP
|
|
Specifies the snapshot name for the specific operation.
|
|
.SH COMMANDS
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBls \fR[ \fIpool-name\fP ]
|
|
Will list all rbd images listed in the \fIrbd_directory\fR object.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBinfo \fR[ \fIimage-name\fP ]
|
|
Will dump information (such as size and order) about a specific rbd image.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBcreate \fR[ \fIimage-name\fP ]
|
|
Will create a new rbd image. You must also specify the size via \fB\-\-size\fR.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBresize \fR[ \fIimage-name\fP ]
|
|
Resizes rbd image. The size parameter also needs to be specified.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBrm \fR[ \fIimage-name\fP ]
|
|
Deletes rbd image (including all data blocks)
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBrm \fR[ \fIimage-name\fP ]
|
|
Deletes rbd image (including all data blocks)
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBexport \fR[ \fIimage-name\fP ] \fR[ \fIdest-path\fP ]
|
|
Exports image to dest path.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBimport \fR[ \fIpath\fP ] \fR[ \fIdest-image\fP ]
|
|
Creates a new image and imports its data from path.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBcp \fR[ \fIsrc-image\fP ] \fR[ \fIdest-image\fP ]
|
|
Copies the content of a src-image into the newly created dest-image.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBmv \fR[ \fIsrc-image\fP ] \fR[ \fIdest-image\fP ]
|
|
Renames an image.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBsnap ls \fR[ \fIimage-name\fP ]
|
|
Dumps the list of snapshots inside a specific image.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBsnap create \fR[ \fIimage-name\fP ]
|
|
Creates a new snapshot. Requires the snapshot name parameter specified.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBsnap rollback \fR[ \fIimage-name\fP ]
|
|
Rollback image content to snapshot. This will iterate through the entire blocks array and update the data head content to the snapshotted version.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fBsnap rm \fR[ \fIimage-name\fP ]
|
|
Removes the specified snapshot.
|
|
.SH IMAGE NAME
|
|
In addition to using the \fB\-\-pool\fR and the \fB\-\-snap\fR options, the image name can include both the pool name and the snapshot name. The image name format is as follows:
|
|
.IP
|
|
[\fIpool\fP/]image-name[@\fIsnap\fP]
|
|
.PP
|
|
Thus an image name that contains a slash character ('/') requires specifying the pool name explicitly.
|
|
.SH EXAMPLES
|
|
To create a new rbd image that is 100 GB:
|
|
.IP
|
|
rbd -p mypool create myimage --size 102400
|
|
.PP
|
|
or alternatively
|
|
.IP
|
|
rbd create mypool/myimage --size 102400
|
|
.PP
|
|
To use a non-default object size (8 MB):
|
|
.IP
|
|
rbd create mypool/myimage --size 102400 --order 23
|
|
.PP
|
|
To delete an rbd image (be careful!):
|
|
.IP
|
|
rbd rm mypool/myimage
|
|
.PP
|
|
.IP
|
|
To create a new snapshot:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.IP
|
|
rbd create mypool/myimage@mysnap
|
|
.PP
|
