=====================================
ceph-mds -- ceph metadata server daemon
=====================================
.. program:: cmds
Synopsis
========
| **ceph-mds** -i *name* [[ --hot-standby [*rank*] ]|[--journal_check *rank*]]
Description
===========
**ceph-mds** is the metadata server daemon for the Ceph distributed file
system. One or more instances of ceph-mds collectively manage the file
system namespace, coordinating access to the shared OSD cluster.
Each ceph-mds daemon instance should have a unique name. The name is used
to identify daemon instances in the ceph.conf.
Once the daemon has started, the monitor cluster will normally assign
it a logical rank, or put it in a standby pool to take over for
another daemon that crashes. Some of the specified options can cause
other behaviors.
If you specify hot-standby or journal-check, you must either specify
the rank on the command line, or specify one of the
mds_standby_for_[rank|name] parameters in the config. The command
line specification overrides the config, and specifying the rank
overrides specifying the name.
Options
=======
.. option:: -f, --foreground
Foreground: do not daemonize after startup (run in foreground). Do
not generate a pid file. Useful when run via :doc:`ceph-run
<ceph-run>`\(8).
.. option:: -d
Debug mode: like ``-f``, but also send all log output to stderr.
.. option:: -c ceph.conf, --conf=ceph.conf
Use *ceph.conf* configuration file instead of the default
``/etc/ceph/ceph.conf`` to determine monitor addresses during
startup.
.. option:: -m monaddress[:port]
Connect to specified monitor (instead of looking through
``ceph.conf``).
Availability
============
**ceph-mon** is part of the Ceph distributed file system. Please refer to the Ceph wiki at
http://ceph.newdream.net/wiki for more information.
