Subject: [PULL 31/31] docs: qsd: Explain --export nbd,name=... default
Date: Fri,  5 Mar 2021 17:54:54 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210305165454.356840-32-kwolf@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210305165454.356840-1-kwolf@redhat.com>

The 'name' option for NBD exports is optional. Add a note that the
default for the option is the node name (people could otherwise expect
that it's the empty string like for qemu-nbd).
