What is BUSE?

BUSE is a block driver in user space. It leverages NBD to provide block volume access to a container. In the back, it writes data out to a local file.

Using BUSE

Declare buse as a driver in your OSD config file as such:

---
osd:
  cluster:
    nodeid: "1"
    clusterid: "deadbeeef"
  drivers:
    buse:

BUSE relies on NBD to export block devices. Therefore, remember to modprobe nbd.

	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

NBD type

func Create

func Create(device Device, id string, size int64) *NBD

Create creates a NBD type interface

func (*NBD) Connect

func (nbd *NBD) Connect() (dev string, err error)

Connect the network block device.

func (*NBD) Disconnect

func (nbd *NBD) Disconnect()

Disconnect disconnects the network block device

func (*NBD) GetSize

func (nbd *NBD) GetSize() int64

GetSize returns the size of the NBD.

func (*NBD) IsConnected
