.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBZED\fR (ZFS Event Daemon) monitors events generated by the ZFS kernel
|
|
module. When a zevent (ZFS Event) is posted, \fBZED\fR will run any ZEDLETs
|
|
(ZFS Event Daemon Linkage for Executable Tasks) that have been enabled for the
|
|
corresponding zevent class.
|
|
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-h
|
|
Display a summary of the command-line options.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-L
|
|
Display license information.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-V
|
|
Display version information.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-v
|
|
Be verbose.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-f
|
|
Force the daemon to run if at all possible, disabling security checks and
|
|
throwing caution to the wind. Not recommended for use in production.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-F
|
|
Run the daemon in the foreground.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-M
|
|
Lock all current and future pages in the virtual memory address space.
|
|
This may help the daemon remain responsive when the system is under heavy
|
|
memory pressure.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-I
|
|
Request that the daemon idle rather than exit when the kernel modules are
|
|
not loaded. Processing of events will start, or resume, when the kernel
|
|
modules are (re)loaded. Under Linux the kernel modules cannot be unloaded
|
|
while the daemon is running.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-Z
|
|
Zero the daemon's state, thereby allowing zevents still within the kernel
|
|
to be reprocessed.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-d\ zedletdir
|
|
Read the enabled ZEDLETs from the specified directory.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-p\ pidfile
|
|
Write the daemon's process ID to the specified file.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-P\ path
|
|
Custom $PATH for zedlets to use. Normally zedlets run in a locked-down
|
|
environment, with hardcoded paths to the ZFS commands ($ZFS, $ZPOOL, $ZED, ...),
|
|
and a hardcoded $PATH. This is done for security reasons. However, the
|
|
ZFS test suite uses a custom PATH for its ZFS commands, and passes it to zed
|
|
with -P. In short, -P is only to be used by the ZFS test suite; never use
|
|
it in production!
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-s\ statefile
|
|
Write the daemon's state to the specified file.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI \-j\ jobs
|
|
Allow at most \fIjobs\fR ZEDLETs to run concurrently,
|
|
delaying execution of new ones until they finish.
|
|
Defaults to 16.
|
|
.SH ZEVENTS
|
|
.PP
|
|
A zevent is comprised of a list of nvpairs (name/value pairs). Each zevent
|
|
contains an EID (Event IDentifier) that uniquely identifies it throughout
|
|
the lifetime of the loaded ZFS kernel module; this EID is a monotonically
|
|
increasing integer that resets to 1 each time the kernel module is loaded.
|
|
Each zevent also contains a class string that identifies the type of event.
|
|
For brevity, a subclass string is defined that omits the leading components
|
|
of the class string. Additional nvpairs exist to provide event details.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The kernel maintains a list of recent zevents that can be viewed (along with
|
|
their associated lists of nvpairs) using the "\fBzpool events \-v\fR" command.
|
|
|
|
.SH CONFIGURATION
|
|
.PP
|
|
ZEDLETs to be invoked in response to zevents are located in the
|
|
\fIenabled-zedlets\fR directory. These can be symlinked or copied from the
|
|
\fIinstalled-zedlets\fR directory; symlinks allow for automatic updates
|
|
from the installed ZEDLETs, whereas copies preserve local modifications.
|
|
As a security measure, since ownership change is a privileged operation,
|
|
ZEDLETs must be owned by root. They must have execute permissions for the user,
|
|
but they must not have write permissions for group or other.
|
|
Dotfiles are ignored.
|
|
.PP
|
|
ZEDLETs are named after the zevent class for which they should be invoked.
|
|
In particular, a ZEDLET will be invoked for a given zevent if either its
|
|
class or subclass string is a prefix of its filename (and is followed by
|
|
a non-alphabetic character). As a special case, the prefix "all" matches
|
|
all zevents. Multiple ZEDLETs may be invoked for a given zevent.
|
|
|
|
.SH ZEDLETS
|
|
.PP
|
|
ZEDLETs are executables invoked by the ZED in response to a given zevent.
|
|
They should be written under the presumption they can be invoked concurrently,
|
|
and they should use appropriate locking to access any shared resources.
|
|
Common variables used by ZEDLETs can be stored in the default rc file which
|
|
is sourced by scripts; these variables should be prefixed with "ZED_".
|
|
.PP
|
|
The zevent nvpairs are passed to ZEDLETs as environment variables.
|
|
Each nvpair name is converted to an environment variable in the following
|
|
manner: 1) it is prefixed with "ZEVENT_", 2) it is converted to uppercase,
|
|
and 3) each non-alphanumeric character is converted to an underscore.
|
|
Some additional environment variables have been defined to present certain
|
|
nvpair values in a more convenient form. An incomplete list of zevent
|
|
environment variables is as follows:
|
|
