.SH NAME
rbd \- manage rados block device (RBD) images
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
\fBrbd\fP [ \-c \fIceph.conf\fP ] [ \-m \fImonaddr\fP ] [\-\-cluster \fIcluster\-name\fP]
[ \-p | \-\-pool \fIpool\fP ] [ \fIcommand\fP ... ]

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fBrbd\fP 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
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-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.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-m monaddress[:port]
Connect to specified monitor (instead of looking through ceph.conf).
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-cluster cluster\-name
Use different cluster name as compared to default cluster name \fIceph\fP\&.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-p pool\-name, \-\-pool pool\-name
Interact with the given pool. Required by most commands.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-namespace namespace\-name
Use a pre\-defined image namespace within a pool
.UNINDENT

.SH PARAMETERS
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-image\-format format\-id
Specifies which object layout to use. The default is 2.
.INDENT 7.0
.IP \(bu 2
format 1 \- (deprecated) Use the original format for a new rbd image. This
format is understood by all versions of librbd and the kernel rbd module,
but does not support newer features like cloning.
.IP \(bu 2
format 2 \- Use the second rbd format, which is supported by librbd since
the Bobtail release and the kernel rbd module since kernel 3.10 (except
for \(dqfancy\(dq striping, which is supported since kernel 4.17). This adds
support for cloning and is more easily extensible to allow more
features in the future.
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-s size\-in\-M/G/T, \-\-size size\-in\-M/G/T

The default value can be changed with the configuration option \fBrbd_default_order\fP,
which takes a power of two (default object size is \fB2 ^ rbd_default_order\fP).
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-stripe\-unit size\-in\-B/K/M
Specifies the stripe unit size in B/K/M.  If no suffix is given, unit B is
assumed.  See striping section (below) for more details.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP

.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-shared lock\-tag
Option for \fIlock add\fP that allows multiple clients to lock the
same image if they use the same tag. The tag is an arbitrary
string. This is useful for situations where an image must
be open from more than one client at once, like during
live migration of a virtual machine, or for use underneath
a clustered file system.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-format format
Specifies output formatting (default: plain, json, xml)
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0

.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-o krbd\-options, \-\-options krbd\-options
Specifies which options to use when mapping or unmapping an image via the
rbd kernel driver.  krbd\-options is a comma\-separated list of options
(similar to mount(8) mount options).  See kernel rbd (krbd) options section

an image. Multiple features can be enabled by repeating this option
multiple times. The following features are supported:
.INDENT 7.0
.IP \(bu 2
layering: layering support
.IP \(bu 2
striping: striping v2 support
.IP \(bu 2
exclusive\-lock: exclusive locking support
.IP \(bu 2
object\-map: object map support (requires exclusive\-lock)
.IP \(bu 2
fast\-diff: fast diff calculations (requires object\-map)
.IP \(bu 2
deep\-flatten: snapshot flatten support
.IP \(bu 2
journaling: journaled IO support (requires exclusive\-lock)
.IP \(bu 2
data\-pool: erasure coded pool support
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-image\-shared
Specifies that the image will be used concurrently by multiple clients.
This will disable features that are dependent upon exclusive ownership
of the image.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-whole\-object
Specifies that the diff should be limited to the extents of a full object
instead of showing intra\-object deltas. When the object map feature is
enabled on an image, limiting the diff to the object extents will
dramatically improve performance since the differences can be computed
by examining the in\-memory object map instead of querying RADOS for each
object within the image.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-limit
Specifies the limit for the number of snapshots permitted.

Show the rbd images that are mapped via the rbd kernel module
(default) or other supported device.
.TP
\fBdevice map\fP [\-t | \-\-device\-type \fIdevice\-type\fP] [\-\-cookie \fIdevice\-cookie\fP] [\-\-show\-cookie] [\-\-snap\-id \fIsnap\-id\fP] [\-\-read\-only] [\-\-exclusive] [\-o | \-\-options \fIdevice\-options\fP] \fIimage\-spec\fP | \fIsnap\-spec\fP
Map the specified image to a block device via the rbd kernel module
(default) or other supported device (\fInbd\fP on Linux or \fIggate\fP on
FreeBSD).
.sp
The \-\-options argument is a comma separated list of device type
specific options (opt1,opt2=val,...).
.TP
\fBdevice unmap\fP [\-t | \-\-device\-type \fIdevice\-type\fP] [\-o | \-\-options \fIdevice\-options\fP] [\-\-snap\-id \fIsnap\-id\fP] \fIimage\-spec\fP | \fIsnap\-spec\fP | \fIdevice\-path\fP
Unmap the block device that was mapped via the rbd kernel module
(default) or other supported device.
.sp
The \-\-options argument is a comma separated list of device type
specific options (opt1,opt2=val,...).
.TP
\fBdevice attach\fP [\-t | \-\-device\-type \fIdevice\-type\fP] \-\-device \fIdevice\-path\fP [\-\-cookie \fIdevice\-cookie\fP] [\-\-show\-cookie] [\-\-snap\-id \fIsnap\-id\fP] [\-\-read\-only] [\-\-exclusive] [\-\-force] [\-o | \-\-options \fIdevice\-options\fP] \fIimage\-spec\fP | \fIsnap\-spec\fP
Attach the specified image to the specified block device (currently only
\fInbd\fP on Linux). This operation is unsafe and should not be normally used.
In particular, specifying the wrong image or the wrong block device may
lead to data corruption as no validation is performed by \fInbd\fP kernel driver.
.sp
The \-\-options argument is a comma separated list of device type
specific options (opt1,opt2=val,...).
.TP
\fBdevice detach\fP [\-t | \-\-device\-type \fIdevice\-type\fP] [\-o | \-\-options \fIdevice\-options\fP] [\-\-snap\-id \fIsnap\-id\fP] \fIimage\-spec\fP | \fIsnap\-spec\fP | \fIdevice\-path\fP
Detach the block device that was mapped or attached (currently only \fInbd\fP
on Linux). This operation is unsafe and should not be normally used.
.sp
The \-\-options argument is a comma separated list of device type
specific options (opt1,opt2=val,...).

Dump a list of byte extents in the image that have changed since the specified start
snapshot, or since the image was created.  Each output line includes the starting offset
(in bytes), the length of the region (in bytes), and either \(aqzero\(aq or \(aqdata\(aq to indicate
whether the region is known to be zeros or may contain other data.
.TP
\fBdu\fP [\-p | \-\-pool \fIpool\-name\fP] [\fIimage\-spec\fP | \fIsnap\-spec\fP] [\-\-merge\-snapshots]
Will calculate the provisioned and actual disk usage of all images and
associated snapshots within the specified pool.  It can also be used against
individual images and snapshots.
.sp
If the RBD fast\-diff feature is not enabled on images, this operation will
require querying the OSDs for every potential object within the image.
.sp
The \-\-merge\-snapshots will merge snapshots used space into their parent images.
.TP
\fBencryption format\fP \fIimage\-spec\fP \fIformat\fP \fIpassphrase\-file\fP [\-\-cipher\-alg \fIalg\fP]
Formats image to an encrypted format.
All data previously written to the image will become unreadable.

Export image to dest path (use \- for stdout).
The \-\-export\-format accepts \(aq1\(aq or \(aq2\(aq currently. Format 2 allow us to export not only the content
of image, but also the snapshots and other properties, such as image_order, features.
.TP
\fBexport\-diff\fP [\-\-from\-snap \fIsnap\-name\fP] [\-\-whole\-object] (\fIimage\-spec\fP | \fIsnap\-spec\fP) \fIdest\-path\fP
Export an incremental diff for an image to dest path (use \- for stdout).  If
an initial snapshot is specified, only changes since that snapshot are included; otherwise,
any regions of the image that contain data are included.  The end snapshot is specified
using the standard \-\-snap option or @snap syntax (see below).  The image diff format includes
metadata about image size changes, and the start and end snapshots.  It efficiently represents
discarded or \(aqzero\(aq regions of the image.
.TP
\fBfeature disable\fP \fIimage\-spec\fP \fIfeature\-name\fP\&...
Disable the specified feature on the specified image. Multiple features can
be specified.

[\-\-image\-shared] \fIsrc\-path\fP [\fIimage\-spec\fP]
Create a new image and imports its data from path (use \- for
stdin).  The import operation will try to create sparse rbd images
if possible.  For import from stdin, the sparsification unit is
the data block size of the destination image (object size).
.sp
The \-\-stripe\-unit and \-\-stripe\-count arguments are optional, but must be
used together.
.sp
The \-\-export\-format accepts \(aq1\(aq or \(aq2\(aq currently. Format 2 allow us to import not only the content
of image, but also the snapshots and other properties, such as image_order, features.
.TP
\fBimport\-diff\fP \fIsrc\-path\fP \fIimage\-spec\fP
Import an incremental diff of an image and applies it to the current image.  If the diff
was generated relative to a start snapshot, we verify that snapshot already exists before
continuing.  If there was an end snapshot we verify it does not already exist before
applying the changes, and create the snapshot when we are done.
.TP
\fBinfo\fP \fIimage\-spec\fP | \fIsnap\-spec\fP
Will dump information (such as size and object size) about a specific rbd image.
If image is a clone, information about its parent is also displayed.
If a snapshot is specified, whether it is protected is shown as well.
.TP
\fBjournal client disconnect\fP \fIjournal\-spec\fP
Flag image journal client as disconnected.
.TP
\fBjournal export\fP [\-\-verbose] [\-\-no\-error] \fIsrc\-journal\-spec\fP \fIpath\-name\fP

Show status of image journal.
.TP
\fBlock add\fP [\-\-shared \fIlock\-tag\fP] \fIimage\-spec\fP \fIlock\-id\fP
Lock an image. The lock\-id is an arbitrary name for the user\(aqs
convenience. By default, this is an exclusive lock, meaning it
will fail if the image is already locked. The \-\-shared option
changes this behavior. Note that locking does not affect
any operation other than adding a lock. It does not
protect an image from being deleted.
.TP
\fBlock ls\fP \fIimage\-spec\fP
Show locks held on the image. The first column is the locker
to use with the \fIlock remove\fP command.
.TP
\fBlock rm\fP \fIimage\-spec\fP \fIlock\-id\fP \fIlocker\fP
Release a lock on an image. The lock id and locker are
as output by lock ls.
.TP
\fBls\fP [\-l | \-\-long] [\fIpool\-name\fP]

\-l, also show snapshots, and use longer\-format output including
size, parent (if clone), format, etc.
.TP
\fBmerge\-diff\fP \fIfirst\-diff\-path\fP \fIsecond\-diff\-path\fP \fImerged\-diff\-path\fP
Merge two continuous incremental diffs of an image into one single diff. The
first diff\(aqs end snapshot must be equal with the second diff\(aqs start snapshot.
The first diff could be \- for stdin, and merged diff could be \- for stdout, which
enables multiple diff files to be merged using something like
\(aqrbd merge\-diff first second \- | rbd merge\-diff \- third result\(aq. Note this command
currently only support the source incremental diff with stripe_count == 1
.TP
\fBmigration abort\fP \fIimage\-spec\fP
Cancel image migration. This step may be run after successful or
failed migration prepare or migration execute steps and returns the
image to its initial (before migration) state. All modifications to
the destination image are lost.
.TP
\fBmigration commit\fP \fIimage\-spec\fP
Commit image migration. This step is run after a successful migration
prepare and migration execute steps and removes the source image data.
.TP
\fBmigration execute\fP \fIimage\-spec\fP
Execute image migration. This step is run after a successful migration
prepare step and copies image data to the destination.

Prepare image migration. This is the first step when migrating an
image, i.e. changing the image location, format or other
parameters that can\(aqt be changed dynamically. The destination can
match the source, and in this case \fIdest\-image\-spec\fP can be omitted.
After this step the source image is set as a parent of the
destination image, and the image is accessible in copy\-on\-write mode
by its destination spec.
.sp
An image can also be migrated from a read\-only import source by adding the
\fI\-\-import\-only\fP optional and providing a JSON\-encoded \fI\-\-source\-spec\fP or a
path to a JSON\-encoded source\-spec file using the \fI\-\-source\-spec\-path\fP
optionals.
.TP
\fBmirror image demote\fP \fIimage\-spec\fP
Demote a primary image to non\-primary for RBD mirroring.
.TP
\fBmirror image disable\fP [\-\-force] \fIimage\-spec\fP
Disable RBD mirroring for an image. If the mirroring is
configured in \fBimage\fP mode for the image\(aqs pool, then it
can be explicitly disabled mirroring for each image within

.sp
The default for \fIpool\-name\fP is \(dqrbd\(dq and \fInamespace\-name\fP is \(dq\(dq. If an image

.sp
The \fIjournal\-name\fP is \fIimage\-id\fP\&.
.sp
You may specify each name individually, using \-\-pool, \-\-namespace, \-\-image, and
\-\-snap options, but this is discouraged in favor of the above spec syntax.
.SH STRIPING
.sp
RBD images are striped over many objects, which are then stored by the
Ceph distributed object store (RADOS).  As a result, read and write
requests for the image are distributed across many nodes in the
cluster, generally preventing any single node from becoming a
bottleneck when individual images get large or busy.
.sp
The striping is controlled by three parameters:
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B object\-size
The size of objects we stripe over is a power of two. It will be rounded up the nearest power of two.
The default object size is 4 MB, smallest is 4K and maximum is 32M.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B stripe_unit
Each [\fIstripe_unit\fP] contiguous bytes are stored adjacently in the same object, before we move on
to the next object.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B stripe_count
After we write [\fIstripe_unit\fP] bytes to [\fIstripe_count\fP] objects, we loop back to the initial object
and write another stripe, until the object reaches its maximum size.  At that point,
we move on to the next [\fIstripe_count\fP] objects.
.UNINDENT
.sp
By default, [\fIstripe_unit\fP] is the same as the object size and [\fIstripe_count\fP] is 1.  Specifying a different
[\fIstripe_unit\fP] and/or [\fIstripe_count\fP] is often referred to as using \(dqfancy\(dq striping and requires format 2.
.SH KERNEL RBD (KRBD) OPTIONS
.sp
Most of these options are useful mainly for debugging and benchmarking.  The
default values are set in the kernel and may therefore depend on the version of
the running kernel.
.sp
Per client instance \fIrbd device map\fP options:
.INDENT 0.0
.IP \(bu 2
fsid=aaaaaaaa\-bbbb\-cccc\-dddd\-eeeeeeeeeeee \- FSID that should be assumed by
the client.
.IP \(bu 2
ip=a.b.c.d[:p] \- IP and, optionally, port the client should use.
.IP \(bu 2
share \- Enable sharing of client instances with other mappings (default).
.IP \(bu 2
noshare \- Disable sharing of client instances with other mappings.
.IP \(bu 2
crc \- Enable CRC32C checksumming for msgr1 on\-the\-wire protocol (default).
For msgr2.1 protocol this option is ignored: full checksumming is always on
in \(aqcrc\(aq mode and always off in \(aqsecure\(aq mode.
.IP \(bu 2
nocrc \- Disable CRC32C checksumming for msgr1 on\-the\-wire protocol.  Note
that only payload checksumming is disabled, header checksumming is always on.
For msgr2.1 protocol this option is ignored.
.IP \(bu 2
cephx_require_signatures \- Require msgr1 message signing feature (since 3.19,
default).  This option is deprecated and will be removed in the future as the
feature has been supported since the Bobtail release.
.IP \(bu 2
nocephx_require_signatures \- Don\(aqt require msgr1 message signing feature
(since 3.19).  This option is deprecated and will be removed in the future.
.IP \(bu 2
tcp_nodelay \- Disable Nagle\(aqs algorithm on client sockets (since 4.0,
default).
.IP \(bu 2
notcp_nodelay \- Enable Nagle\(aqs algorithm on client sockets (since 4.0).
.IP \(bu 2
cephx_sign_messages \- Enable message signing for msgr1 on\-the\-wire protocol
(since 4.4, default).  For msgr2.1 protocol this option is ignored: message
signing is built into \(aqsecure\(aq mode and not offered in \(aqcrc\(aq mode.
.IP \(bu 2
nocephx_sign_messages \- Disable message signing for msgr1 on\-the\-wire protocol
(since 4.4).  For msgr2.1 protocol this option is ignored.
.IP \(bu 2
mount_timeout=x \- A timeout on various steps in \fIrbd device map\fP and
\fIrbd device unmap\fP sequences (default is 60 seconds).  In particular,
since 4.2 this can be used to ensure that \fIrbd device unmap\fP eventually
times out when there is no network connection to a cluster.
.IP \(bu 2
osdkeepalive=x \- OSD keepalive timeout (default is 5 seconds).
.IP \(bu 2
osd_idle_ttl=x \- OSD idle TTL (default is 60 seconds).
.UNINDENT
.sp
Per mapping (block device) \fIrbd device map\fP options:
.INDENT 0.0
.IP \(bu 2
rw \- Map the image read\-write (default).  Overridden by \-\-read\-only.
.IP \(bu 2
ro \- Map the image read\-only.  Equivalent to \-\-read\-only.
.IP \(bu 2
queue_depth=x \- queue depth (since 4.2, default is 128 requests).
.IP \(bu 2
lock_on_read \- Acquire exclusive lock on reads, in addition to writes and
discards (since 4.9).
.IP \(bu 2
exclusive \- Disable automatic exclusive lock transitions (since 4.12).
Equivalent to \-\-exclusive.
.IP \(bu 2
lock_timeout=x \- A timeout on waiting for the acquisition of exclusive lock
(since 4.17, default is 0 seconds, meaning no timeout).
.IP \(bu 2
notrim \- Turn off discard and write zeroes offload support to avoid
deprovisioning a fully provisioned image (since 4.17). When enabled, discard
requests will fail with \-EOPNOTSUPP, write zeroes requests will fall back to
manually zeroing.
.IP \(bu 2
abort_on_full \- Fail write requests with \-ENOSPC when the cluster is full or
the data pool reaches its quota (since 5.0).  The default behaviour is to
block until the full condition is cleared.
.IP \(bu 2
alloc_size \- Minimum allocation unit of the underlying OSD object store
backend (since 5.1, default is 64K bytes).  This is used to round off and
drop discards that are too small.  For bluestore, the recommended setting is
bluestore_min_alloc_size (currently set to 4K for all types of drives,
previously used to be set to 64K for hard disk drives and 16K for
solid\-state drives).  For filestore with filestore_punch_hole = false, the
recommended setting is image object size (typically 4M).
.IP \(bu 2
crush_location=x \- Specify the location of the client in terms of CRUSH
hierarchy (since 5.8).  This is a set of key\-value pairs separated from
each other by \(aq|\(aq, with keys separated from values by \(aq:\(aq.  Note that \(aq|\(aq
may need to be quoted or escaped to avoid it being interpreted as a pipe
by the shell.  The key is the bucket type name (e.g. rack, datacenter or
region with default bucket types) and the value is the bucket name.  For
example, to indicate that the client is local to rack \(dqmyrack\(dq, data center
\(dqmydc\(dq and region \(dqmyregion\(dq:

.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.EX
crush_location=rack:myrack|datacenter:mydc|region:myregion
.EE
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
Each key\-value pair stands on its own: \(dqmyrack\(dq doesn\(aqt need to reside in
\(dqmydc\(dq, which in turn doesn\(aqt need to reside in \(dqmyregion\(dq.  The location
is not a path to the root of the hierarchy but rather a set of nodes that
are matched independently, owning to the fact that bucket names are unique
within a CRUSH map.  \(dqMultipath\(dq locations are supported, so it is possible
to indicate locality for multiple parallel hierarchies:

.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.EX
crush_location=rack:myrack1|rack:myrack2|datacenter:mydc
.EE
.UNINDENT

.IP \(bu 2
read_from_replica=no \- Disable replica reads, always pick the primary OSD
(since 5.8, default).
.IP \(bu 2
read_from_replica=balance \- When issued a read on a replicated pool, pick
a random OSD for serving it (since 5.8).
.sp
This mode is safe for general use only since Octopus (i.e. after \(dqceph osd
require\-osd\-release octopus\(dq).  Otherwise it should be limited to read\-only
workloads such as images mapped read\-only everywhere or snapshots.
.IP \(bu 2
read_from_replica=localize \- When issued a read on a replicated pool, pick
the most local OSD for serving it (since 5.8).  The locality metric is
calculated against the location of the client given with crush_location;
a match with the lowest\-valued bucket type wins.  For example, with default
bucket types, an OSD in a matching rack is closer than an OSD in a matching
data center, which in turn is closer than an OSD in a matching region.
.sp
This mode is safe for general use only since Octopus (i.e. after \(dqceph osd
require\-osd\-release octopus\(dq).  Otherwise it should be limited to read\-only
workloads such as images mapped read\-only everywhere or snapshots.
.IP \(bu 2
compression_hint=none \- Don\(aqt set compression hints (since 5.8, default).
.IP \(bu 2
compression_hint=compressible \- Hint to the underlying OSD object store
backend that the data is compressible, enabling compression in passive mode
(since 5.8).
.IP \(bu 2
compression_hint=incompressible \- Hint to the underlying OSD object store
backend that the data is incompressible, disabling compression in aggressive
mode (since 5.8).
.IP \(bu 2
ms_mode=legacy \- Use msgr1 on\-the\-wire protocol (since 5.11, default).
.IP \(bu 2
ms_mode=crc \- Use msgr2.1 on\-the\-wire protocol, select \(aqcrc\(aq mode, also
referred to as plain mode (since 5.11).  If the daemon denies \(aqcrc\(aq mode,
fail the connection.
.IP \(bu 2
ms_mode=secure \- Use msgr2.1 on\-the\-wire protocol, select \(aqsecure\(aq mode
(since 5.11).  \(aqsecure\(aq mode provides full in\-transit encryption ensuring
both confidentiality and authenticity.  If the daemon denies \(aqsecure\(aq mode,
fail the connection.
.IP \(bu 2
ms_mode=prefer\-crc \- Use msgr2.1 on\-the\-wire protocol, select \(aqcrc\(aq
mode (since 5.11).  If the daemon denies \(aqcrc\(aq mode in favor of \(aqsecure\(aq
mode, agree to \(aqsecure\(aq mode.
.IP \(bu 2
ms_mode=prefer\-secure \- Use msgr2.1 on\-the\-wire protocol, select \(aqsecure\(aq
mode (since 5.11).  If the daemon denies \(aqsecure\(aq mode in favor of \(aqcrc\(aq
mode, agree to \(aqcrc\(aq mode.
.IP \(bu 2
rxbounce \- Use a bounce buffer when receiving data (since 5.17).  The default
behaviour is to read directly into the destination buffer.  A bounce buffer
is needed if the destination buffer isn\(aqt guaranteed to be stable (i.e. remain
unchanged while it is being read to).  In particular this is the case for
Windows where a system\-wide \(dqdummy\(dq (throwaway) page may be mapped into the
destination buffer in order to generate a single large I/O.  Otherwise,
\(dqlibceph: ... bad crc/signature\(dq or \(dqlibceph: ... integrity error, bad crc\(dq
errors and associated performance degradation are expected.
.IP \(bu 2
udev \- Wait for udev device manager to finish executing all matching
\(dqadd\(dq rules and release the device before exiting (default).  This option
is not passed to the kernel.
.IP \(bu 2
noudev \- Don\(aqt wait for udev device manager.  When enabled, the device may
not be fully usable immediately on exit.
.UNINDENT
.sp
\fIrbd device unmap\fP options:

.IP \(bu 2
