The code originate in NetBSD and there are the copyright notes have been assigned to the NetBSD Foundation. Update the files up to the point where we started diverging. Further relaxation of the licensing terms are possible after we check the NetBSD updates, and contact the local authors. In the case of ccdconfig.8 this reinstates the 3rd clause but since the code is not directly from Berkeley, the change was bogus. Obtained from: NetBSD

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility is used to dynamically configure and unconfigure concatenated disk
|
|
devices, or ccds.
|
|
For more information about the ccd, see
|
|
.Xr ccd 4 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl c
|
|
Configure a ccd.
|
|
This is the default behavior of
|
|
.Nm .
|
|
.It Fl C
|
|
Configure all ccd devices listed in the ccd configuration file.
|
|
.It Fl f Ar config_file
|
|
When configuring or unconfiguring all devices, read the file
|
|
.Pa config_file
|
|
instead of the default
|
|
.Pa /etc/ccd.conf .
|
|
.It Fl 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.
|
|
.It Fl u
|
|
Unconfigure a ccd.
|
|
.It Fl U
|
|
Unconfigure all ccd devices listed the ccd configuration file.
|
|
.It Fl v
|
|
Cause
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to be verbose.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
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
|
|
.Dq none .
|
|
The flags are as follows:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
CCDF_UNIFORM 0x02 Use uniform interleave
|
|
CCDF_MIRROR 0x04 Support mirroring
|
|
CCDF_NO_OFFSET 0x08 Do not use an offset
|
|
CCDF_LINUX 0x0A Linux md(4) compatibility
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The format in the
|
|
configuration file appears exactly as if it were entered on the command line.
|
|
Note that on the command line and in the configuration file, the
|
|
.Pa flags
|
|
argument is optional.

# ccd ileave flags component devices
|
|
ccd0 16 none /dev/da2s1 /dev/da3s1
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The component devices need to name partitions of type
|
|
.Li FS_BSDFFS
|
|
(or
|
|
.Dq 4.2BSD
|
|
as shown by
|
|
.Xr disklabel 8 ) .

|
|
If you want to use the
|
|
.Tn Linux
|
|
.Xr md 4
|
|
compatibility mode, please be sure
|
|
to read the notes in
|
|
.Xr ccd 4 .

|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
A number of
|
|
.Nm
|
|
examples are shown below.
|
|
The arguments passed
|
|
to
|
|
.Nm
|
|
are exactly the same as you might place in the
|
|
.Pa /etc/ccd.conf
|
|
configuration file.
|
|
The first example creates a 4-disk stripe out of
|
|
four scsi disk partitions.
|
|
The stripe uses a 64 sector interleave.
|
|
The second example is an example of a complex stripe/mirror combination.
|
|
It reads as a two disk stripe of da4 and da5 which is mirrored
|
|
to a two disk stripe of da6 and da7.
|
|
The last example is a simple
|
|
mirror.
|
|
The second slice of /dev/da8 is mirrored with the third slice of /dev/da9
|
|
and assigned to ccd0.

The following are matching commands in

and

to create a RAID-0 in

ccdconfig -c /dev/ccd0 32 linux /dev/ada0s1 /dev/ada0s2
|

.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When you create a new ccd disk you generally want to
|
|
.Xr fdisk 8
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr disklabel 8
|
|
it before doing anything else.
|
|
Once you create the initial label you can
|
|
edit it, adding additional partitions.
|
|
The label itself takes up the first
|
|
16 sectors of the ccd disk.
|
|
If all you are doing is creating file systems
|
|
with newfs, you do not have to worry about this as newfs will skip the
|
|
label area.
|
|
However, if you intend to
|
|
.Xr dd 1
|
|
to or from a ccd partition it is usually a good idea to construct the
|
|
partition such that it does not overlap the label area.
|
|
For example, if
|
|
you have A ccd disk with 10000 sectors you might create a 'd' partition
|
|
with offset 16 and size 9984.
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
# disklabel ccd0 > /tmp/disklabel.ccd0
|
|
# disklabel -Rr ccd0 /tmp/disklabel.ccd0
|
|
# disklabel -e ccd0
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The disklabeling of a ccd disk is usually a one-time affair.
|
|
If you reboot the machine and reconfigure the ccd disk,
|
|
the disklabel you
|
|
had created before will still be there and not require reinitialization.
|
|
Beware that changing any ccd parameters: interleave, flags, or the
|
|
device list making up the ccd disk, will usually destroy any prior
|
|
data on that ccd disk.
|
|
If this occurs it is usually a good idea to
|
|
reinitialize the label before [re]constructing your ccd disk.
|
|
.Sh RECOVERY
|
|
An error on a ccd disk is usually unrecoverable unless you are using the
|
|
mirroring option.
|
|
But mirroring has its own perils: It assumes that
|
|
both copies of the data at any given sector are the same.
|
|
This holds true
|
|
until a write error occurs or until you replace either side of the mirror.
|
|
This is a poor-man's mirroring implementation.
|
|
It works well enough that if
|
|
you begin to get disk errors you should be able to backup the ccd disk,
|
|
replace the broken hardware, and then regenerate the ccd disk.
|
|
If you need
|
|
more than this you should look into external hardware RAID SCSI boxes,
|
|
RAID controllers (see GENERIC),
|
|
or software RAID systems such as
|
|
.Xr geom 8
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr gvinum 8 .

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility first appeared in
|
|
.Nx 1.1 .
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The initial disklabel returned by
|
|
.Xr ccd 4
|
|
specifies only 3 partitions.
|
|
One needs to change the number of partitions to 8 using
|
|
.Dq Nm disklabel Fl e
|
|
to get the usual
|
|
.Bx
|
|
expectations.
