- RBD Replay
-===================
-
-.. index:: Ceph Block Device; RBD Replay
-
-RBD Replay is a set of tools for capturing and replaying Rados Block Device
-(RBD) workloads. To capture an RBD workload, ``lttng-tools`` must be installed
-on the client, and ``librbd`` on the client must be the v0.87 (Giant) release
-or later. To replay an RBD workload, ``librbd`` on the client must be the Giant
-release or later.
-
-Capture and replay takes three steps:
-
-#. Capture the trace. Make sure to capture ``pthread_id`` context::
-
- mkdir -p traces
- lttng create -o traces librbd
- lttng enable-event -u 'librbd:*'
- lttng add-context -u -t pthread_id
- lttng start
- # run RBD workload here
- lttng stop
-
-#. Process the trace with `rbd-replay-prep`_::
-
- rbd-replay-prep traces/ust/uid/*/* replay.bin
-
-#. Replay the trace with `rbd-replay`_. Use read-only until you know
- it's doing what you want::
-
- rbd-replay --read-only replay.bin
-
-.. important:: ``rbd-replay`` will destroy data by default. Do not use against
- an image you wish to keep, unless you use the ``--read-only`` option.
-
-The replayed workload does not have to be against the same RBD image or even the
-same cluster as the captured workload. To account for differences, you may need
-to use the ``--pool`` and ``--map-image`` options of ``rbd-replay``.
