NAME
ccdconfig — configuration utility for the concatenated disk driver
SYNOPSIS
ccdconfig |
[-cv] ccd ileave [flags] dev [...] |
ccdconfig |
-C [-v] [-f config_file] |
ccdconfig |
-u [-v] ccd [...] |
ccdconfig |
-U [-v] [-f config_file] |
ccdconfig |
-g [-M core] [-N system] [ccd [...]] |
DESCRIPTION
ccdconfig is used to dynamically configure and unconfigure concatenated disk devices, or ccds. For more information about the ccd, see
ccd(4).
The options are as follows:
-
-c
-
Configure a ccd. This is the default behavior of ccdconfig.
-
-C
-
Configure all ccd devices listed in the ccd configuration file.
-
-f config_file
-
When configuring or unconfiguring all devices, read the file config_file instead of the default /etc/ccd.conf.
-
-g
-
Dump the current ccd configuration in a format suitable for use as the ccd configuration file. If no arguments are specified, every configured ccd is dumped. Otherwise, the configuration of each listed ccd is dumped.
-
-M core
-
Extract values associated with the name list from core instead of the default /dev/mem.
-
-N system
-
Extract the name list from system instead of the default /netbsd.
-
-u
-
Unconfigure a ccd.
-
-U
-
Unconfigure all ccd devices listed the ccd configuration file.
-
-v
-
Causes ccdconfig to be verbose.
A ccd is described on the command line and in the ccd configuration file by the name of the ccd, the interleave factor, the ccd configuration flags, and a list of one or more devices. The flags may be represented as a decimal number, a hexadecimal number, a comma-separated list of strings, or the word “none”. The flags are as follows:
Symbolic |
Numeric |
Comment |
CCDF_UNIFORM |
0x02 |
Use uniform interleave. The size of all components is clamped to that of the smallest component. |
CCDF_NOLABEL |
0x04 |
Ignore raw disklabel. Useful when creating a new ccd. |
/etc/ccd.conf
The file
/etc/ccd.conf is used to configure
ccdconfig if
-C or
-U is used. Each line of the configuration file contains arguments as per the
-c argument:
ccd ileave [
flags]
dev [
...]
A ‘#' is a comment, and everything to end of line is ignored. A ‘\' at the end of a line indicates that the next line should be concatenated with the current. A ‘\' preceding any character (other than the end of line) prevents that character's special meaning from taking effect.
See EXAMPLES for an example of /etc/ccd.conf.
FILES
/etc/ccd.conf - default ccd configuration file.
EXAMPLES
The following command, executed from the command line, would configure ccd0 with 4 components (/dev/sd2e, /dev/sd3e, /dev/sd4e, /dev/sd5e), and an interleave factor of 32 blocks.
# ccdconfig ccd0 32 0 /dev/sd2e /dev/sd3e /dev/sd4e /dev/sd5e
An example /etc/ccd.conf:
#
# /etc/ccd.conf
# Configuration file for concatenated disk devices
#
# ccd ileave flags component devices
ccd0 16 none /dev/sd2e /dev/sd3e
HISTORY
The ccdconfig command first appeared in NetBSD 1.1.
