.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility is used for setting up transparent providers on existing ones.
|
|
Its main purpose is testing other GEOM classes, as it allows force providers
|
|
removal and I/O errors simulation with a given probability.
|
|
It is also a good starting point for implementing new GEOM classes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The first argument to
|
|
.Nm
|
|
indicates an action to be performed:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Cm configure"
|
|
.It Cm create
|
|
Set up a transparent provider on the given devices.
|
|
If operation succeded, new provider should appear with name
|
|
.Pa /dev/ Ns Ao Ar dev Ac Ns Pa .nop .
|
|
The kernel module
|
|
.Pa geom_nop.ko
|
|
will be loaded if it is not loaded already.
|
|
.It Cm configure
|
|
Configure existing transparent provider.
|
|
At the moment it is only used
|
|
for changing failure probability.
|
|
The kernel module
|
|
.Pa geom_nop.ko
|
|
will be loaded if it is not loaded already.
|
|
.It Cm destroy
|
|
Turn off the given transparent providers.
|
|
.It Cm list
|
|
List all or the given currently configured providers.
|
|
.It Cm load
|
|
Load
|
|
.Pa geom_nop.ko
|
|
kernel module.
|
|
.It Cm unload
|
|
Unload
|
|
.Pa geom_nop.ko
|
|
kernel module.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Additional options:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Fl f Ar failprob"
|
|
.It Fl f
|
|
Force the removal of the specified provider.
|
|
.It Fl f Ar failprob
|
|
Specifies failure probability in percentage.
|
|
.It Fl o Ar offset
|
|
Where to begin on the original provider.
|
|
.It Fl o Ar size
|
|
Size of the transparent provider.
|
|
.It Fl v
|
|
Be more verbose.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh SYSCTL VARIABLES
|
|
The following
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variables can be used to control the behavior of the
|
|
.Nm NOP
|
|
GEOM class.
|
|
The default value is shown next to each variable.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Va kern.geom.nop.debug : No 0
|
|
Debug level of the
|
|
.Nm NOP
|
|
GEOM class.
|
|
This can be set to a number between 0 and 2, both included.
|
|
If set to 0 minimal debug information is printed, and if set to 2 the
|
|
maximum amount of debug information in printed.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
The following example shows how to create a transparent provider for disk
|
|
.Pa /dev/da0
|
|
with 50% failure probability and destroy it.
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
gnop create -v -f 50 da0
|
|
gnop destroy -v da0.nop
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
Exit status is 0 on success, and 1 if the command fails.
