xnbd-register -- Restore xNBD sessions upon boot
SYNOPSIS
xnbd-register [--start] [--stop] [--restart] [--status] [--quiet]
DESCRIPTION
With the xmbd-register command one can restore xnbd-server and xnbd-client sessions based on a configuration file. This is useful to start
both, client or server upon boot.
To achieve this, xmbd-register reads a semi-structured configuration file located in /etc/xnbd.conf. See below for format hints.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
--start Start devices configured in the configuration files. If the configuration files describes volumes, xnbd-register will try to
establish a client connection to the configured server instance.
Alternatively, xnbd-register will start sharing configured volumes by starting an xnbd-wrapper super server.
--status Retrieve server status from a running xnbd-wrapper command, if applicable.
--stop Analogous to the start option, the stop argument will stop all xnbd connection, being client or server instances.
--restart Restart all xnbd instances, being client or server
CONFIGURATION FILE
xnbd-register will read its defaults from /etc/xnbd.conf. This is a semi-structured configuration file, describing client and server con-
nections that are supposed to be restored upon start of the system.
The syntax of the file is a JSON data structure, allowing comments starting with a hash key ("#"). Two types of objects are recognized:
xnbd volumes and a server instance. xnbd volumes are indexed by the supposed devices name. This is, to restore /dev/nbd0 an object named
"nbd0 must be configured. Valid arguments are host, name and port. So, for example, this is to configure /dev/nbd0 connecting to
localhost on port 8520. If present, identify the shared device by the configured logical name:
"nbd0": {
"host": "127.0.0.1",
"port": 8520,
"name": "name"
}
Similarly, a server instance configures an xnbd-wrapper. Valid options are:
address Specifies the listening address
port Specifies the listening port
socket Specifies the listening socket for the control channels
logpath Specifies the log path where logging output is being redirected to
volumes A list of volumes which are exported
"server": {
"address": "127.0.0.1",
"port": 8520,
"socket": "/var/run/xnbd.ctl",
"logpath": "/tmp/xnbd.log",
"volumes": [ "/dev/volume", "/dev/sdb1", "/var/lib/image.file" ]
}
