ceph: Rename a storage pool.
$ ceph osd pool rename ${current_name} ${new_name}
try on your machine

The command "ceph osd pool rename ${current_name} ${new_name}" is used to rename an OSD (Object Storage Daemon) pool in the Ceph distributed storage system.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "ceph": The command-line tool used to manage and interact with the Ceph cluster.
  • "osd pool rename": Subcommand used to rename an OSD pool.
  • "${current_name}": Placeholder for the current name of the OSD pool you want to rename. You need to replace this with the actual name of the pool you want to rename.
  • "${new_name}": Placeholder for the new name you want to assign to the OSD pool. Replace this with the desired new name for the pool.

When you execute this command with the actual pool names, it will rename the OSD pool from its current name to the new name specified. It's important to note that the renaming operation does not affect the data stored in the pool; only the name is changed.
