Ceph Clone
Clone an RBD snapshot into a new image
Calls POST /api/block/image/{image_spec}/snap/{snapshot_name}/clone, creating a new copy-on-write image backed by the snapshot. Some Ceph versions process this asynchronously via the Dashboard task manager; this task issues the request and immediately fetches the resulting child image, which may briefly reflect an in-progress state until Ceph finishes cloning it.

Properties
childImageName *Requiredstring
Destination image name
Name of the new cloned image.
childPoolName *Requiredstring
Destination pool name
Pool the new cloned image is created in.
host *Requiredstring
Ceph Dashboard host
Hostname or IP address of the Ceph Manager Dashboard. Must be reachable from the Kestra worker.
imageName *Requiredstring
Image name
Name of the source RBD image holding the snapshot.
poolName *Requiredstring
Pool name
Pool of the source image holding the snapshot.
snapshotName *Requiredstring
Snapshot name
Name of the snapshot to clone from.
password string
Password
Password for the Ceph Dashboard account. Never logged. Required unless token is set; ignored otherwise.
pluginDefaultsRef Non-dynamicstring
Reference (ref) of the pluginDefaults to apply to this task.
port integerstring
8443Ceph Dashboard port
TCP port of the Ceph Manager Dashboard REST API. Defaults to 8443.
skipSsl booleanstring
falseSkip TLS certificate verification
When true, disables TLS certificate verification. Useful when the Ceph Manager Dashboard uses a self-signed certificate, which is the default on most Ceph deployments. Defaults to false (secure): enable it explicitly and only for trusted networks.
token string
Pre-obtained JWT
A JWT obtained from POST /api/auth, used directly instead of username/password. Reused as-is for every request in the execution. It expires (Ceph default 8h TTL) and is NOT auto-renewed, so do not use it in triggers or scheduled flows; use username/password there instead. Mutually exclusive with password: when set, username/password are ignored.
username string
Username
Ceph Dashboard account used to obtain a session token from POST /api/auth. Required unless token is set.
Outputs
name string
Image name
Name of the RBD image.
obj_size integer
Object size
Size of the RADOS objects backing the image, in bytes.
pool_name string
Pool name
Name of the pool the image belongs to.
size integer
Size
Size of the image in bytes.
