   blkmapd    ( 8 )

демон отображения макета блока pNFS (pNFS block layout mapping daemon)

Имя (Name)

blkmapd - pNFS block layout mapping daemon

Синопсис (Synopsis)

blkmapd [-h] [-d] [-f]

Описание (Description)

The blkmapd daemon performs device discovery and mapping for the
       parallel NFS (pNFS) block layout client [RFC5663].

The pNFS block layout protocol builds a complex storage hierarchy from a set of simple volumes. These simple volumes are addressed by content, using a signature on the volume to uniquely name each one. The daemon locates a volume by examining each block device in the system for the given signature.

The topology typically consists of a hierarchy of volumes built by striping, slicing, and concatenating the simple volumes. The blkmapd daemon uses the device-mapper driver to construct logical devices that reflect the server topology, and passes these devices to the kernel for use by the pNFS block layout client.


Параметры (Options)

-h     Display usage message.

-d Performs device discovery only then exits.

-f Runs blkmapd in the foreground and sends output to stderr (as opposed to syslogd)


Конфигурационный файл (Config file)

The blkmapd daemon recognizes the following value from the
       [general] section of the /etc/nfs.conf configuration file:

pipefs-directory Tells blkmapd where to look for the rpc_pipefs filesystem. The default value is /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs.
