20.32. Deleting a Storage Volume's Contents

download PDF
The virsh vol-wipe vol pool command wipes a volume, to ensure data previously on the volume is not accessible to future reads. The command requires a --pool pool which is the name or UUID of the storage pool the volume is in as well as pool which is the name the name or key or path of the volume to wipe. Note that it is possible to choose different wiping algorithms instead of re-writing volume with zeroes, using the argument --algorithm and using one of the following supported algorithm types:
  • zero - 1-pass all zeroes
  • nnsa - 4-pass NNSA Policy Letter NAP-14.1-C (XVI-8) for sanitizing removable and non-removable hard disks: random x2, 0x00, verify.
  • dod - 4-pass DoD 5220.22-M section 8-306 procedure for sanitizing removable and non-removable rigid disks: random, 0x00, 0xff, verify.
  • bsi - 9-pass method recommended by the German Center of Security in Information Technologies (http://www.bsi.bund.de): 0xff, 0xfe, 0xfd, 0xfb, 0xf7, 0xef, 0xdf, 0xbf, 0x7f.
  • gutmann - The canonical 35-pass sequence described in Gutmann’s paper.
  • schneier - 7-pass method described by Bruce Schneier in "Applied Cryptography" (1996): 0x00, 0xff, random x5.
  • pfitzner7 - Roy Pfitzner’s 7-random-pass method: random x7
  • pfitzner33 - Roy Pfitzner’s 33-random-pass method: random x33.
  • random - 1-pass pattern: random.s

Note

The availability of algorithms may be limited by the version of the "scrub" binary installed on the host.
