How to enable NBD?
-
Likely a dumb question:
I decided to see how NDB would affect backups.
As I understand it, you need to do it from teh command and teh command is this:
"xe network-param-add param-name=purpose param-key=nbd uuid=<network-uuid>"
I went to the command line and typed "xe network-list"
The network I use is this one:
uuid ( RO) : xxxxxxxx-yyyyy-88bc-b327-zzzzzzzzzzzz
name-label ( RW): Main Network
name-description ( RW): Active / Active (Balance-SLB)
bridge ( RO): xapi0I then typed :
"xe network-param-add param-name=purpose param-key=nbd uuid=xxxxxxxx-yyyyy-88bc-b327-zzzzzzzzzzzz"
It accepted it without error.
If I run "xe network-list params=all" is see the field :" purpose (SRW): nbd"
for the network above.
The only issue is that the "NBD" field does not appear in the XO screen (Master, commit f9220) for the network does not populate.
Thoughts ?
Thanks!

Ignore that entire post...user error. I have two networks that are spelled very close to the same thing and I was using the wrong one. -
