The cinder shell utility
cinder
The cinder shell
utility interacts with the OpenStack Cinder API from the command line.
It supports the entirety of the OpenStack Cinder API.
You'll need to provide cinder with your OpenStack username and API key.
You can do this with the --os-username, --os-password and --os-tenant-name options, but it's easier to just
set them as environment variables by setting two environment
variables:
OS_USERNAME or CINDER_USERNAME
Your OpenStack Cinder username.
OS_PASSWORD or CINDER_PASSWORD
Your password.
OS_TENANT_NAME or CINDER_PROJECT_ID
Project for work.
OS_AUTH_URL or CINDER_URL
The OpenStack API server URL.
OS_VOLUME_API_VERSION
The OpenStack Block Storage API version.
For example, in Bash you'd use:
export OS_USERNAME=yourname
export OS_PASSWORD=yadayadayada
export OS_TENANT_NAME=myproject
export OS_AUTH_URL=http://...
export OS_VOLUME_API_VERSION=1From there, all shell commands take the form:
cinder <command> [arguments...]Run cinder help
to get a full list of all possible commands, and run cinder help <command> to get detailed help
for that command.
