+                  max_mds: 3
+                - name: b
+
+    In the above example, filesystem 'a' will have 'max_mds' 3,
+    and filesystme 'b' will have 'max_mds' 2.
+
+    To change the mdsmap's default session_timeout (60 seconds), use::

+            cephfs:
+              session_timeout: 300
+
+    Note, this will cause the task to check the /scratch_devs file on each node
+    for available devices.  If no such file is found, /dev/sdb will be used.
+
+    To run some daemons under valgrind, include their names
+    and the tool/args to use in a valgrind section::
+
+        tasks:
+        - ceph:
+          valgrind:
+            mds.1: --tool=memcheck
+            osd.1: [--tool=memcheck, --leak-check=no]
+
+    Those nodes which are using memcheck or valgrind will get
+    checked for bad results.
+
+    To adjust or modify config options, use::
+
+        tasks:
+        - ceph:
+            conf:
+              section:
+                key: value
+
+    For example::

+            conf:
+              mds.0:

+                debug client: 10
+                debug ms: 1
+
+    By default, the cluster log is checked for errors and warnings,
+    and the run marked failed if any appear. You can ignore log
+    entries by giving a list of egrep compatible regexes, i.e.:
+
+        tasks:
+        - ceph:
+            log-ignorelist: ['foo.*bar', 'bad message']
+
+    To run multiple ceph clusters, use multiple ceph tasks, and roles
+    with a cluster name prefix, e.g. cluster1.client.0. Roles with no
+    cluster use the default cluster name, 'ceph'. OSDs from separate
+    clusters must be on separate hosts. Clients and non-osd daemons
+    from multiple clusters may be colocated. For each cluster, add an
+    instance of the ceph task with the cluster name specified, e.g.::
+
+        roles:
+        - [mon.a, osd.0, osd.1]

+    Mount/unmount a ``ceph-fuse`` client.
+
+    The config is optional and defaults to mounting on all clients. If
+    a config is given, it is expected to be a list of clients to do
+    this operation on. This lets you e.g. set up one client with
+    ``ceph-fuse`` and another with ``kclient``.
+
+    ``brxnet`` should be a Private IPv4 Address range, default range is
+    [192.168.0.0/16]

+                    mounted: false
+            - ... do something that requires the FS unmounted ...

+    MDSThrasher::
+
+    The MDSThrasher thrashes MDSs during execution of other tasks (workunits, etc).
+
+    The config is optional.  Many of the config parameters are a a maximum value
+    to use when selecting a random value from a range.  To always use the maximum
+    value, set no_random to true.  The config is a dict containing some or all of:
+
+    max_thrash: [default: 1] the maximum number of active MDSs per FS that will be thrashed at
+      any given time.
+
+    max_thrash_delay: [default: 30] maximum number of seconds to delay before
+      thrashing again.
+
+    max_replay_thrash_delay: [default: 4] maximum number of seconds to delay while in
+      the replay state before thrashing.
+
+    max_revive_delay: [default: 10] maximum number of seconds to delay before
+      bringing back a thrashed MDS.
+
+    randomize: [default: true] enables randomization and use the max/min values
+
+    seed: [no default] seed the random number generator
+
+    thrash_in_replay: [default: 0.0] likelihood that the MDS will be thrashed
+      during replay.  Value should be between 0.0 and 1.0.
+
+    thrash_max_mds: [default: 0.05] likelihood that the max_mds of the mds
+      cluster will be modified to a value [1, current) or (current, starting
+      max_mds]. Value should be between 0.0 and 1.0.
+
+    thrash_while_stopping: [default: false] thrash an MDS while there
+      are MDS in up:stopping (because max_mds was changed and some
+      MDS were deactivated).
+
+    thrash_weights: allows specific MDSs to be thrashed more/less frequently.
+      This option overrides anything specified by max_thrash.  This option is a
+      dict containing mds.x: weight pairs.  For example, [mds.a: 0.7, mds.b:
+      0.3, mds.c: 0.0].  Each weight is a value from 0.0 to 1.0.  Any MDSs not
+      specified will be automatically given a weight of 0.0 (not thrashed).
+      For a given MDS, by default the trasher delays for up to
+      max_thrash_delay, trashes, waits for the MDS to recover, and iterates.
+      If a non-zero weight is specified for an MDS, for each iteration the
+      thrasher chooses whether to thrash during that iteration based on a
+      random value [0-1] not exceeding the weight of that MDS.
+
+    Examples::
+
+
+      The following example sets the likelihood that mds.a will be thrashed
+      to 80%, mds.b to 20%, and other MDSs will not be thrashed.  It also sets the
+      likelihood that an MDS will be thrashed in replay to 40%.
+      Thrash weights do not have to sum to 1.
+
+      tasks:
+      - ceph:
+      - mds_thrash:
+          thrash_weights:
+            - mds.a: 0.8
+            - mds.b: 0.2
+          thrash_in_replay: 0.4
+      - ceph-fuse:
+      - workunit:
+          clients:
+            all: [suites/fsx.sh]
+
+      The following example disables randomization, and uses the max delay values:
+
+      tasks:
+      - ceph:
+      - mds_thrash:
+          max_thrash_delay: 10

+    - wait for quorum to be formed
+    - sleep for 'thrash_delay' seconds
+
+    Options::
+
+    seed                Seed to use on the RNG to reproduce a previous
+                        behaviour (default: None; i.e., not set)
+    revive_delay        Number of seconds to wait before reviving
+                        the monitor (default: 10)
+    thrash_delay        Number of seconds to wait in-between
+                        test iterations (default: 0)
+    store_thrash        Thrash monitor store before killing the monitor being thrashed (default: False)
+    store_thrash_probability  Probability of thrashing a monitor's store
+                              (default: 50)
+    thrash_many         Thrash multiple monitors instead of just one. If
+                        'maintain_quorum' is set to False, then we will
+                        thrash up to as many monitors as there are
+                        available. (default: False)
+    maintain_quorum     Always maintain quorum, taking care on how many
+                        monitors we kill during the thrashing. If we
+                        happen to only have one or two monitors configured,

+                        (default: True)
+    freeze_mon_probability: how often to freeze the mon instead of killing it,
+                        in % (default: 0)
+    freeze_mon_duration: how many seconds to freeze the mon (default: 15)

+    "Thrash" the OSDs by randomly marking them out/down (and then back

+    seconds it randomly chooses to add or remove an OSD (even odds)
+    unless there are fewer than min_out OSDs out of the cluster, or
+    more than min_in OSDs in the cluster.
+
+    All commands are run on mon0 and it stops when __exit__ is called.
+
+    The config is optional, and is a dict containing some or all of:
+
+    cluster: (default 'ceph') the name of the cluster to thrash
+
+    min_in: (default 4) the minimum number of OSDs to keep in the
+       cluster
+
+    min_out: (default 0) the minimum number of OSDs to keep out of the
+       cluster
+
+    op_delay: (5) the length of time to sleep between changing an
+       OSD's status
+
+    min_dead: (0) minimum number of osds to leave down/dead.
+
+    max_dead: (0) maximum number of osds to leave down/dead before waiting
+       for clean.  This should probably be num_replicas - 1.
+
+    clean_interval: (60) the approximate length of time to loop before
+       waiting until the cluster goes clean. (In reality this is used
+       to probabilistically choose when to wait, and the method used
+       makes it closer to -- but not identical to -- the half-life.)
+
+    scrub_interval: (-1) the approximate length of time to loop before
+       waiting until a scrub is performed while cleaning. (In reality
+       this is used to probabilistically choose when to wait, and it
+       only applies to the cases where cleaning is being performed).
+       -1 is used to indicate that no scrubbing will be done.
+
+    chance_down: (0.4) the probability that the thrasher will mark an
+       OSD down rather than marking it out. (The thrasher will not
+       consider that OSD out of the cluster, since presently an OSD
+       wrongly marked down will mark itself back up again.) This value
+       can be either an integer (eg, 75) or a float probability (eg
+       0.75).
+
+    chance_test_min_size: (0) chance to run test_pool_min_size,
+       which:
+       - kills all but one osd
+       - waits
+       - kills that osd
+       - revives all other osds
+       - verifies that the osds fully recover
+
+    timeout: (360) the number of seconds to wait for the cluster
+       to become clean after each cluster change. If this doesn't
+       happen within the timeout, an exception will be raised.
+
+    revive_timeout: (150) number of seconds to wait for an osd asok to
+       appear after attempting to revive the osd
+
+    thrash_primary_affinity: (true) randomly adjust primary-affinity
+
+    chance_pgnum_grow: (0) chance to increase a pool's size
+    chance_pgpnum_fix: (0) chance to adjust pgpnum to pg for a pool
+    pool_grow_by: (10) amount to increase pgnum by
+    chance_pgnum_shrink: (0) chance to decrease a pool's size
+    pool_shrink_by: (10) amount to decrease pgnum by
+    max_pgs_per_pool_osd: (1200) don't expand pools past this size per osd
+
+    pause_short: (3) duration of short pause
+    pause_long: (80) duration of long pause
+    pause_check_after: (50) assert osd down after this long
+    chance_inject_pause_short: (1) chance of injecting short stall
+    chance_inject_pause_long: (0) chance of injecting long stall
+
+    clean_wait: (0) duration to wait before resuming thrashing once clean
+
+    sighup_delay: (0.1) duration to delay between sending signal.SIGHUP to a
+                  random live osd
+
+    powercycle: (false) whether to power cycle the node instead
+        of just the osd process. Note that this assumes that a single
+        osd is the only important process on the node.
+
+    bdev_inject_crash: (0) seconds to delay while inducing a synthetic crash.
+        the delay lets the BlockDevice "accept" more aio operations but blocks
+        any flush, and then eventually crashes (losing some or all ios).  If 0,
+        no bdev failure injection is enabled.
+
+    bdev_inject_crash_probability: (.5) probability of doing a bdev failure
+        injection crash vs a normal OSD kill.
+
+    chance_test_backfill_full: (0) chance to simulate full disks stopping
+        backfill
+
+    chance_test_map_discontinuity: (0) chance to test map discontinuity
+    map_discontinuity_sleep_time: (40) time to wait for map trims
+
+    ceph_objectstore_tool: (true) whether to export/import a pg while an osd is down
+    chance_move_pg: (1.0) chance of moving a pg if more than 1 osd is down (default 100%)
+
+    optrack_toggle_delay: (2.0) duration to delay between toggling op tracker
+                  enablement to all osds

+
+    The strategy here is to set up a private virtual subnet that is larger than
+    the subnet the machine(s) exist in, and allocate virtual IPs from that pool.
+
+    - The teuthology.yaml must include a section like::
+
+        vip:
+          - machine_subnet: 172.21.0.0/20
+            virtual_subnet: 10.0.0.0/16
+
+      At least one item's machine_subnet should map the subnet the test machine's
+      primary IP lives in (the one DNS resolves to).  The virtual_subnet must have a
+      shorter prefix (i.e., larger than the machine_subnet).  If there are multiple
+      machine_subnets, they cannot map into the same virtual_subnet.
+
+    - Each machine gets an IP in the virtual_subset statically configured by the vip
+      task. This lets all test machines reach each other and (most importantly) any
+      virtual IPs.
+
+    - 1 or more virtual IPs are then mapped for the task.  These IPs are chosen based
+      on one of the remotes.  This uses a lot of network space but it avoids any
+      conflicts between tests.
+
+    To use a virtual IP, the {{VIP0}}, {{VIP1}}, etc. substitutions can be used.
+    
+    {{VIPSUBNET}} is the virtual_subnet address (10.0.0.0 in the example).
+
+    {{VIPPREFIXLEN}} is the virtual_subnet prefix (16 in the example.

+vstart_runner: override Filesystem and Mount interfaces to run a CephFSTestCase against a vstart
+ceph instance instead of a packaged/installed cluster.  Use this to turn around test cases
+quickly during development.
+
+Simple usage (assuming teuthology and ceph checked out in ~/git):
+
+    # Activate the teuthology virtualenv
+    source ~/git/teuthology/virtualenv/bin/activate
+    # Go into your ceph build directory
+    cd ~/git/ceph/build
+    # Invoke a test using this script
+    python ~/git/ceph/qa/tasks/vstart_runner.py --create tasks.cephfs.test_data_scan
+
+Alternative usage:
+
+    # Alternatively, if you use different paths, specify them as follows:
+    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`/lib PYTHONPATH=~/git/teuthology:~/git/ceph/qa:`pwd`/../src/pybind:`pwd`/lib/cython_modules/lib.3 python ~/git/ceph/qa/tasks/vstart_runner.py
+
+    # If you wish to drop to a python shell on failures, use --interactive:
+    python ~/git/ceph/qa/tasks/vstart_runner.py --interactive
+
+    # If you wish to run a named test case, pass it as an argument:
+    python ~/git/ceph/qa/tasks/vstart_runner.py tasks.cephfs.test_data_scan
+
+    # Also, you can create the cluster once and then run named test cases against it:
+    python ~/git/ceph/qa/tasks/vstart_runner.py --create-cluster-only
+    python ~/git/ceph/qa/tasks/vstart_runner.py tasks.mgr.dashboard.test_health
+    python ~/git/ceph/qa/tasks/vstart_runner.py tasks.mgr.dashboard.test_rgw
+
+Following are few important notes that might save some investigation around
+vstart_runner.py -
+
+* If using the FUSE client, ensure that the fuse package is installed and
+  enabled on the system and that "user_allow_other" is added to /etc/fuse.conf.
+
+* If using the kernel client, the user must have the ability to run commands
+  with passwordless sudo access.
+
+* A failure on the kernel client may crash the host, so it's recommended to
+  use this functionality within a virtual machine.
+
+* "adjust-ulimits", "ceph-coverage" and "sudo" in command arguments are
+  overridden by vstart_runner.py. Former two usually have no applicability
+  for test runs on developer's machines and see note point on "omit_sudo"
+  to know more about overriding of "sudo".
+
+* "omit_sudo" is re-set to False unconditionally in cases of commands
+  "passwd" and "chown".
+
+* The presence of binary file named after the first argument in the command
+  arguments received by the method LocalRemote.run() is checked for in
+  <ceph-repo-root>/build/bin/. If present, the first argument is replaced with
+  the path to binary file.
