=======================================
rados -- rados object storage utility
=======================================
.. program:: rados
Synopsis
========
| **rados** [ *options* ] [ *command* ]
Description
===========
**rados** is a utility for interacting with a Ceph object storage
cluster (RADOS), part of the Ceph distributed storage system.
Options
=======
.. option:: -p pool, --pool pool
Interact with the given pool. Required by most commands.
.. option:: --pgid
As an alternative to ``--pool``, ``--pgid`` also allow users to specify the
PG id to which the command will be directed. With this option, certain
commands like ``ls`` allow users to limit the scope of the command to the given PG.
.. option:: -N namespace, --namespace namespace
Specify the rados namespace to use for the object.
.. option:: -s snap, --snap snap
Read from the given pool snapshot. Valid for all pool-specific read operations.
.. option:: -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.
.. option:: -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.
.. option:: -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.
.. option:: -m monaddress[:port]
Connect to specified monitor (instead of looking through ceph.conf).
.. option:: -b block_size
Set the block size for put/get/append ops and for write benchmarking.
.. option:: --striper
Uses the striping API of rados rather than the default one.
Available for stat, stat2, get, put, append, truncate, rm, ls
and all xattr related operation
.. option:: -O object_size
Set the object size for put/get ops and for write benchmarking
Global commands
===============
:command:`lspools`
List object pools
:command:`df`
Show utilization statistics, including disk usage (bytes) and object
counts, over the entire system and broken down by pool.
:command:`list-inconsistent-pg` *pool*
List inconsistent PGs in given pool.
:command:`list-inconsistent-obj` *pgid*
List inconsistent objects in given PG.
:command:`list-inconsistent-snapset` *pgid*
List inconsistent snapsets in given PG.
Pool specific commands
======================
:command:`get` *name* *outfile*
Read object name from the cluster and write it to outfile.
:command:`put` *name* *infile* [--offset offset]
Write object name with start offset (default:0) to the cluster with contents from infile.
**Warning:** The put command creates a single RADOS object, sized just as
large as your input file. Unless your objects are of reasonable and consistent sizes, that
is probably not what you want -- consider using RGW/S3, CephFS, or RBD instead.
:command:`append` *name* *infile*
Append object name to the cluster with contents from infile.
:command:`rm` *name*
Remove object name.
:command:`listwatchers` *name*
List the watchers of object name.
:command:`ls` *outfile*
List objects in the given pool and write to outfile. Instead of ``--pool`` if ``--pgid`` will be specified, ``ls`` will only list the objects in the given PG.
:command:`lssnap`
List snapshots for given pool.
:command:`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.
:command:`mksnap` *foo*
Create pool snapshot named *foo*.
:command:`rmsnap` *foo*
Remove pool snapshot named *foo*.
:command:`bench` *seconds* *mode* [ -b *objsize* ] [ -t *threads* ]
Benchmark for *seconds*. The mode can be *write*, *seq*, or
*rand*. *seq* and *rand* are read benchmarks, either
sequential or random. Before running one of the reading benchmarks,
run a write benchmark with the *--no-cleanup* option. The default
object size is 4 MB, and the default number of simulated threads
(parallel writes) is 16. The *--run-name <label>* option is useful
for benchmarking a workload test from multiple clients. The *<label>*
is an arbitrary object name. It is "benchmark_last_metadata" by
default, and is used as the underlying object name for "read" and
"write" ops.
Note: -b *objsize* option is valid only in *write* mode.
Note: *write* and *seq* must be run on the same host otherwise the
objects created by *write* will have names that will fail *seq*.
:command:`cleanup` [ --run-name *run_name* ] [ --prefix *prefix* ]
Clean up a previous benchmark operation.
Note: the default run-name is "benchmark_last_metadata"
:command:`listxattr` *name*
List all extended attributes of an object.
:command:`getxattr` *name* *attr*
Dump the extended attribute value of *attr* of an object.
:command:`setxattr` *name* *attr* *value*
Set the value of *attr* in the extended attributes of an object.
:command:`rmxattr` *name* *attr*
Remove *attr* from the extended attributes of an object.
:command:`stat` *name*
Get stat (ie. mtime, size) of given object
:command:`stat2` *name*
Get stat (similar to stat, but with high precision time) of given object
:command:`listomapkeys` *name*
List all the keys stored in the object map of object name.
:command:`listomapvals` *name*
List all key/value pairs stored in the object map of object name.
The values are dumped in hexadecimal.
:command:`getomapval` [ --omap-key-file *file* ] *name* *key* [ *out-file* ]
Dump the hexadecimal value of key in the object map of object name.
If the optional *out-file* argument is not provided, the value will be
written to standard output.
:command:`setomapval` [ --omap-key-file *file* ] *name* *key* [ *value* ]
Set the value of key in the object map of object name. If the optional
*value* argument is not provided, the value will be read from standard
input.
:command:`rmomapkey` [ --omap-key-file *file* ] *name* *key*
Remove key from the object map of object name.
:command:`getomapheader` *name*
Dump the hexadecimal value of the object map header of object name.
:command:`setomapheader` *name* *value*
Set the value of the object map header of object name.
:command:`export` *filename*
Serialize pool contents to a file or standard output.\n"
:command:`import` [--dry-run] [--no-overwrite] < filename | - >
Load pool contents from a file or standard input
Examples
========
To view cluster utilization::
rados df
To get a list object in pool foo sent to stdout::
rados -p foo ls -
To get a list of objects in PG 0.6::
rados --pgid 0.6 ls
To write an object::
rados -p foo put myobject blah.txt
To create a snapshot::
rados -p foo mksnap mysnap
To delete the object::
rados -p foo rm myobject
To read a previously snapshotted version of an object::
rados -p foo -s mysnap get myobject blah.txt.old
To list inconsistent objects in PG 0.6::
rados list-inconsistent-obj 0.6 --format=json-pretty
Availability
============
**rados** is part of Ceph, a massively scalable, open-source, distributed storage system. Please refer to
the Ceph documentation at http://ceph.com/docs for more information.
