gluster-blockd(8)

📦 version 0.5, in fedora 43, fedora 44

✨ NAME ✨

gluster-blockd — the Gluster Block Management Daemon, aka the girlboss that runs the whole block-management situation 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

gluster-blockd [OPTION...]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so bestie, gluster-blockd is the daemon responsible for block management. That's literally its whole job, its whole personality, its main character arc. 🎀

And because it's the block management daemon, it must be running on all servers. Not some of them. Not the cute ones. All of them. No cap. If it's not up everywhere, the vibe check fails and things do not slay. 😭

💖 OPTIONS 💖

✨ Basic Options ✨

  • --glfs-lru-count <COUNT> — sets the glfs objects cache capacity. The max you can go is 512, and the default is 5. 🫶
  • --log-level <LOGLEVEL> — how loud the logging is gonna be. Valid options are TRACE, DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRIT and NONE. Default is INFO, periodt. 👑
  • --no-remote-rpc — tells it to ignore remote rpc communication, capabilities check and all the other node sanity checks. Just… skipping the group chat entirely 🙈

🌈 Miscellaneous Options 🌈

  • usage | help — displays a usage message. Basically it hands you the instructions instead of making you guess 💀
  • version — prints the program version. A little "hi, this is me" moment ⭐

🔥 EXAMPLES 🔥

With lru cache capacity 10:

# gluster-blockd --glfs-lru-count 10

To choose log-level DEBUG:

# gluster-blockd --log-level DEBUG

With lru cache capacity 8 and log-level ERROR:

# gluster-blockd --glfs-lru-count 8 --log-level ERROR

Run gluster-blockd in ignore remote rpc mode:

# gluster-blockd --no-remote-rpc
