man vblade (Administration système) - export data via ATA over Ethernet
NAME
vblade, vbladed - export data via ATA over Ethernet
SYNOPSIS
vblade {shelf} {slot} {netif} {filename}
DESCRIPTION
The vblade command starts a process that uses raw sockets to perform ATA over Ethernet, acting like a virtual EtherDrive (R) blade.
The vbladed script can be used to daemonize the vblade process, detaching it from your terminal and sending its output to the system logs.
Arguments
- shelf
- This should be the shelf address (major AoE address) of the AoE device to create.
- slot
- This should be the slot address (minor AoE address) of the AoE device to create.
- netif
- The name of the ethernet network interface to use for AoE communications.
- filename
- The name of the regular file or block device to export.
EXAMPLE
In this example, the root user on a host named nai exports a file named "3TB" to the LAN on eth0 using AoE shelf address 11 and slot address 1. The process runs in the foreground. Using vbladed would have resulted in the process running as a daemon in the background.
- nai:~# vblade 11 1 eth0 /data/3TB
