14.12.6.1. Uploading contents to a storage volume
The
vol-upload --pool pool-or-uuid
--offset bytes
--length bytes
vol-name-or-key-or-path local-file
command uploads the contents of specified local-file to a storage volume. The command requires --pool pool-or-uuid
which is the name or UUID of the storage pool the volume is in. It also requires vol-name-or-key-or-path which is the name or key or path of the volume to wipe. The --offset
option is the position in the storage volume at which to start writing the data. --length length
dictates an upper limit for the amount of data to be uploaded. An error will occur if the local-file is greater than the specified --length
.
