The :program:`cinder` shell utility
|
|
=========================================
|
|
|
|
.. program:: cinder
|
|
.. highlight:: bash
|
|
|
|
The :program:`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 :program:`cinder` with your OpenStack username and
|
|
API key. You can do this with the :option:`--os-username`, :option:`--os-password`
|
|
and :option:`--os-tenant-name` options, but it's easier to just set them as
|
|
environment variables by setting two environment variables:
|
|
|
|
.. envvar:: OS_USERNAME or CINDER_USERNAME
|
|
|
|
Your OpenStack Cinder username.
|
|
|
|
.. envvar:: OS_PASSWORD or CINDER_PASSWORD
|
|
|
|
Your password.
|
|
|
|
.. envvar:: OS_TENANT_NAME or CINDER_PROJECT_ID
|
|
|
|
Project for work.
|
|
|
|
.. envvar:: OS_AUTH_URL or CINDER_URL
|
|
|
|
The OpenStack API server URL.
|
|
|
|
.. envvar:: 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=1
|
|
|
|
From there, all shell commands take the form::
|
|
|
|
cinder <command> [arguments...]
|
|
|
|
Run :program:`cinder help` to get a full list of all possible commands,
|
|
and run :program:`cinder help <command>` to get detailed help for that
|
|
command.
