ZC - ZFS Commander

An ZFS administration tool inspired on Midnight commander

Work in Progress

Description

ZFS Commander is a simple front-end for the most commonly used zpool & zfs commands. While the tool is a work-in-progress, several functions are already working. See the list of functions implemented in Usage section.

The tool is composed of 2 panes, each showing different ZFS related information. The tool will start with Datasets at left and Snapshots at the right pane. By pressing TAB, each window will cycle through the different modes: Pools, Datasets, Volumes and Snapshots.

ZFS Commander ZFS Commander

Installation

ZFS commander is build on Rust language, so make sure to have Rust installed on your machine. Instructions can be found here: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install

To compile and install ZFS comamnder, run the following commands:

$ sudo apt install build-essential ncurses-dev
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ make clean

To uninstall run:

$ sudo make uninstall

Usage

As the execution of some ZFS operations require higher privilege run ZFS commander with sudo or doas:

$ sudo zc

Operation

Use TAB key to switch between the modes available.

Use LEFT or RIGHT keys to navigate in between the two windows.

Function Keys per Mode

Key Pool Dataset Snapshot Volume
F1 Help Help Help Help
F2 - zfs promote zfs diff -
F3 - - zfs send -
F4 - - - -
F5 - zfs snapshot zfs clone zfs snapshot
F6 - zfs rename zfs rename zfs rename
F7 zpool scrub zfs create zfs rollback zfs create
F8 zpool destroy zfs destroy zfs destroy zfs destroy
F9 zpool get all zfs get all zfs get all zfs get all
F10 Exit Exit Exit Exit

NOTE: F9 Get All window enables individual properties to be directly edited.

Comments
  • New Feature: Explicit refresh

    New Feature: Explicit refresh

    The data can become stale while zc is running.

    For example, if a snapshot is created or destroyed, outside of zc, those changes will not appear in zc until something causes that list to be reloaded. An explicit command to refresh current data would be handy.

  • New Feature: Allow setting user-defined properties

    New Feature: Allow setting user-defined properties

    ZFS supports user-defined properties, as long as they have a colon in the name.

    It would be handy if zc had a way to add/set/remove user properties on datasets.

    Documentation for reference: https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/man/8/zfsprops.8.html#User_Properties

  • Suggestion: Tree view instead of tabbed panes

    Suggestion: Tree view instead of tabbed panes

    We can see pool, volume, dataset, and snapshot information in zc. However, there's a logical organization to those things that naturally fits a tree.

    For example, it was a little unintuitive, to me, that, if I have a specific dataset highlighted, all the snapshots across all datasets are listed.

    A tree organization, sorta like one might find in targetcli, seems like it would provide a much friendlier user experience.

    Then, perhaps, whatever object is selected in said tree would have its properties automatically displayed on the right pane.

  • Non-settable properties should not allow the user to attempt to edit them

    Non-settable properties should not allow the user to attempt to edit them

    When in the dataset properties list, it is possible to attempt to edit non-settable properties, though of course attempts to do so will fail. If a property is not settable, the edit dialog should simply not come up.

  • Suggestion: Command hints should indicate they are F-keys

    Suggestion: Command hints should indicate they are F-keys

    As title says. Yes, the documentation points it out, but it would be much clearer if the program showed F1, F2, etc, rather than just the numbers. I wondered if my system was missing a component or something until I went back to the documentation to see that they are, in fact, the F-keys. My first instinct was to try ctrl-1, alt-1, etc. F1 didn't occur to me right away.
