DESCRIPTION

15       rbd-nbd is a client for RADOS block device (rbd) images like rbd kernel

17       device, allowing access it as regular local block device.

29              Override  the parameter of NBD kernel module when modprobe, used
30              to limit the count of nbd device.
31
32       --max_part *limit*
33              Override for module param nbds_max.

40       snap-spec  is [pool-name]/image-name@snap-name
41
