nbdkit-full-plugin(1)		    NBDKIT		 nbdkit-full-plugin(1)

NAME
       nbdkit-full-plugin - nbdkit plugin which	is always full

SYNOPSIS
	nbdkit full [size=]SIZE

DESCRIPTION
       "nbdkit-full-plugin" is a plugin	for nbdkit(1).	Reads from this
       virtual disk return zeroes.  All	writes and similar operations like
       zero and	trim fail with "ENOSPC"	(NoA spaceA leftA onA device) error.

       In other	words this behaves like	a sparse (thin-provisioned) virtual
       disk which has run out of space on the host.

   Equivalent nbdkit-error-filter command
       Although	this is	a standalone plugin, it	is equivalent to using
       nbdkit-error-filter(1):

	nbdkit --filter=error null SIZE	\
			      error-pwrite=ENOSPC error-pwrite-rate=100% \
			      error-trim=ENOSPC	error-trim-rate=100% \
			      error-zero=ENOSPC	error-zero-rate=100%

       nbdkit-error-filter can be more flexible	because	you can	place it on
       top of other plugins and	you can	control	when to	inject errors.

PARAMETERS
       [size=]SIZE
	   Specify the virtual size of the disk	image.

	   This	parameter is required.

	   "size=" is a	magic config key and may be omitted in most cases.
	   See "Magic parameters" in nbdkit(1).

FILES
       $plugindir/nbdkit-full-plugin.so
	   The plugin.

	   Use "nbdkit --dump-config" to find the location of $plugindir.

VERSION
       "nbdkit-full-plugin" first appeared in nbdkit 1.10.
