I add script to create snapshot on rbd for use with samba shadow_copy2. For more details go on https://github.com/ksperis/autosnap-rbd-shadow-copy
Before you need to have ceph cluster running and samba installed.
Verify admin access to the ceph cluster : (should not return error)
$ rbd ls …Create block device and map it with /etc/ceph/rbdmap
$ rbd create rbd/myrbd --size=1024
$ echo "rbd/myrbd" >> /etc/ceph/rbdmap
$ service rbdmap reload
[ ok ] Starting RBD Mapping: rbd/myrbd.
[ ok ] Mounting all filesystems...done.

This means the image is still open or the client using it crashed. Try again after closing/unmapping it …Don't forget to stop IO before sync and unmap rbd before rename.
