INCUS.STORAGE.VOLUME.NBD(1)

📦 version 7.0.1, in ubuntu stonking

💅 NAME

incus-storage-volume-nbd — NBD access to a block storage volume

okay so bestie, this is the little command that lets you poke at a block storage volume over NBD, like you're reaching directly into the disk instead of going through all the usual ceremony. iconic behavior honestly 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

incus storage volume nbd [:] [/] [flags]

🌸 DESCRIPTION

Description:

NBD access to a block storage volume

that's the whole vibe. you point it at a volume and it hands you NBD access to the underlying block device, so your tools can talk to it directly. main character energy for your storage layer fr fr 🫶

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • --address="" — the specific address you want it to listen on. leave it empty and it just… doesn't, no cap.
  • --writable[=false] — gets you write access to the disk. defaults to false, which means read-only unless you say otherwise. be so careful with this one bestie, writing to a disk is not a vibe check you can undo 😭

👑 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 👑

these ones come down from the parent command, they're like the family heirlooms of the CLI:

  • --debug[=false] — show all debug messages. all of them. the whole tea ☕
  • --explain[=false] — if the command is valid, explain its parsed arguments instead of running it. it's giving "read the recipe before you cook", and honestly? respect.
  • --force-local[=false] — force using the local unix socket. no remote nonsense, we staying home 🌸
  • -h, --help[=false] — print help. the classic. the icon. use it always 💖
  • --project="" — override the source project
  • -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress information. silent but slaying.
  • --sub-commands[=false] — use with help or --help to view sub-commands. peek behind the curtain 🧚
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — show all information messages. the opposite of quiet, and just as valid 💅
  • --version[=false] — print version number. gotta know which era of the software you're living in ⭐
