NAME

       tcmu-runner - A daemon that handles the userspace side of the LIO TCM-User backstore

DESCRIPTION

       tcmu-runner is a service that provides an operating environment for LIO TCM-User handlers.
       These currently include handlers for Gluster glfs and the qcow and qcow2 image formats.

USAGE

       While normally started automatically via D-Bus system activation, tcmu-runner can also  be
       run as root directly, usually for debugging and development purposes.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Print usage information

       -d, --debug
              Enable debug messages

       -V, --version
              Print tcmu-runner's version

CONFIGURING HANDLERS

       TCMU-backed  handlers  are typically configured using normal LIO configuration tools, such
       as targetcli.  Part of doing  this  will  be  entering  a  handler-specific  configuration
       string.

   CONFIGURING GLUSTER HANDLER (glfs)
       This handler uses the Gluster glfs API to use Gluster as a backstore for the image file.

       Its configuration string is:

           volume@hostname/filename
           volume: The volume on the Gluster server
           hostname: The server's hostname
           filename: The backing file

   CONFIGURING QCOW HANDLER (qcow)
       This handler supports qcow, qcow2, or raw image file formats.

       Its configuration string is:

           path
           path:  The  full path to a file of a supported file format. The file must already have
           been created using qemu-img.
