Hi Josh, looks like I celebrated too soon:

This is the problem:

As a workaround, you can pass the first diff in via stdin, e.g.:

cat snap1.diff | rbd merge-diff - snap2.diff combined.diff

one test worked - merging the initial full export (export-diff with just one snapshot)

but the second one failed (merging two incremental diffs):

root@lab2-b1:/data/volume1# cat scrun1-120720151502.bck | rbd merge-diff - scrun1-120720151504.bck scrun1-part04.bck
Merging image diff: 13% complete...failed.
rbd: merge-diff error

I am not sure how to run gdb in such scenario with stdin/stdout

Thanks,
Alex

        rbd: merge-diff error

        That's all the output and I have found this link
        http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/12911 but not sure if the patch
        should
        have already been in hammer or how to get it?


    That patch fixed a bug that was only present after hammer, due to
    parallelizing export-diff. You're likely seeing a different (possibly
    new) issue.

    Unfortunately there's not much output we can enable for
export-diff in
    hammer. Could you try running the command via gdb to figure out where
    and why it's failing? Make sure you have librbd-dbg installed, then
    send the output from gdb doing:

    gdb --args rbd merge-diff /data/volume1/scrun1-120720151502.bck \
    /data/volume1/scrun1-120720151504.bck
/data/volume1/mrg-scrun1-0204.bck
    break rbd.cc:1931
    break rbd.cc:1935
    break rbd.cc:1967
    break rbd.cc:1985
    break rbd.cc:1999
    break rbd.cc:2008
    break rbd.cc:2021
    break rbd.cc:2053
    break rbd.cc:2098
    run
    # (it will run now, stopping when it hits the error)
    info locals


Will do - how does one load librbd-dbg?  I have the following on the
system:

librbd-dev - RADOS block device client library (development files)
librbd1-dbg - debugging symbols for librbd1

is librbd1-dbg sufficient?

Yes, I just forgot the 1 in the package name.

Also a question - the merge-diff really stitches the to diff files
together, not really merges, correct? For example, in the following
workflow:

export-diff from full image - 10GB
export-diff from snap1 - 2 GB
export-diff from snap2 - 1 GB

My resulting merge export file would be 13GB, correct?

It does merge overlapping sections, i.e. part of snap1 that was
overwritten in snap2, so the merged diff may be smaller than the
original two.
