18 Description
19 ===========
20
21 **rbd-nbd** is a client for RADOS block device (rbd) images like rbd kernel module.
22 It will map a rbd image to a nbd (Network Block Device) device, allowing access it
23 as regular local block device.
24
25 Options
26 =======
27
28 .. option:: -c ceph.conf
29
30 Use *ceph.conf* configuration file instead of the default
31 ``/etc/ceph/ceph.conf`` to determine monitor addresses during startup.
32
33 .. option:: --read-only
34
35 Map read-only.
36
37 .. option:: --nbds_max *limit*
38
39 Override the parameter nbds_max of NBD kernel module when modprobe, used to
40 limit the count of nbd device.
41
42 .. option:: --max_part *limit*
43
44 Override for module param max_part.
45
46 .. option:: --exclusive
47
48 Forbid writes by other clients.
49
50 .. option:: --notrim
51
52 Turn off trim/discard.
53
54 .. option:: --encryption-format
55
56 Image encryption format.
57 Possible values: *luks1*, *luks2*
58
59 .. option:: --encryption-passphrase-file
60
61 Path of file containing a passphrase for unlocking image encryption.
62
63 .. option:: --io-timeout *seconds*
64
65 Override device timeout. Linux kernel will default to a 30 second request timeout.
66 Allow the user to optionally specify an alternate timeout.
67
68 .. option:: --reattach-timeout *seconds*
69
70 Specify timeout for the kernel to wait for a new rbd-nbd process is
71 attached after the old process is detached. The default is 30
72 second.
73
74 Image and snap specs
75 ====================
76
77 | *image-spec* is [*pool-name*]/*image-name*
78 | *snap-spec* is [*pool-name*]/*image-name*\ @\ *snap-name*
79
80 The default for *pool-name* is "rbd". If an image name contains a slash
81 character ('/'), *pool-name* is required.
82
83 Availability
84 ============
85
86 **rbd-nbd** is part of Ceph, a massively scalable, open-source, distributed storage system. Please refer to
87 the Ceph documentation at https://docs.ceph.com/ for more information.
