NAME¶
rados - rados object storage utility
SYNOPSIS¶
rados [ -m monaddr ] [ mkpool | rmpool foo ] [ -p | --pool
pool ] [ -s | --snap snap ] [ -i infile ] [ -o outfile ]
command ...
DESCRIPTION¶
rados is a utility for interacting with a Ceph object storage cluster
(RADOS), part of the Ceph distributed storage system.
OPTIONS¶
- -p pool, --pool pool
- Interact with the given pool. Required by most
commands.
- -s snap, --snap snap
- Read from the given pool snapshot. Valid for all
pool-specific read operations.
- -i infile
- will specify an input file to be passed along as a payload
with the command to the monitor cluster. This is only used for specific
monitor commands.
- -o outfile
- will write any payload returned by the monitor cluster with
its reply to outfile. Only specific monitor commands (e.g. osd getmap)
return a payload.
- -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.
- -m monaddress[:port]
- Connect to specified monitor (instead of looking through
ceph.conf).
GLOBAL COMMANDS¶
- lspools
- List object pools
- df
- Show utilization statistics, including disk usage (bytes)
and object counts, over the entire system and broken down by pool.
- mkpool foo
- Create a pool with name foo.
- rmpool foo [ foo
--yes-i-really-really-mean-it ]
- Delete the pool foo (and all its data)
POOL SPECIFIC COMMANDS¶
- get name outfile
- Read object name from the cluster and write it to
outfile.
- put name infile
- Write object name to the cluster with contents from
infile.
- rm name
- Remove object name.
- ls outfile
- List objects in given pool and write to outfile.
- lssnap
- List snapshots for given pool.
- clonedata srcname dstname
--object-locator key
- Clone object byte data from srcname to
dstname. Both objects must be stored with the locator key
key (usually either srcname or dstname). Object
attributes and omap keys are not copied or cloned.
- mksnap foo
- Create pool snapshot named foo.
- rmsnap foo
- Remove pool snapshot named foo.
- bench seconds mode [ -b
objsize ] [ -t threads ]
- Benchmark for seconds. The mode can be write or read. The
default object size is 4 MB, and the default number of simulated threads
(parallel writes) is 16.
- listomapkeys name
- List all the keys stored in the object map of object
name.
- listomapvals name
- List all key/value pairs stored in the object map of object
name. The values are dumped in hexadecimal.
- getomapval name key
- Dump the hexadecimal value of key in the object map of
object name.
- setomapval name key
value
- Set the value of key in the object map of object name.
- rmomapkey name key
- Remove key from the object map of object name.
- getomapheader name
- Dump the hexadecimal value of the object map header of
object name.
- setomapheader name value
- Set the value of the object map header of object name.
EXAMPLES¶
To view cluster utilization:
To get a list object in pool foo sent to stdout:
To write an object:
rados -p foo put myobject blah.txt
To create a snapshot:
rados -p foo mksnap mysnap
To delete the object:
To read a previously snapshotted version of an object:
rados -p foo -s mysnap get myobject blah.txt.old
