Load fuse module, if it is not loaded

modprobe fuse

Create mount directory for Charybde. Tested application should use this directory.

Note: Faults can be applied for files that are manipulated through this directory only!

mkdir /mnt/charybdbde

dest_dir directory on the file system where actual files will be stored Running CharybdeFS

./charybdefs /mnt/charybdbde -omodules=subdir,subdir=/dest_dir

Running CharybdeFS and allowing other users to use the mount

./charybdefs /mnt/charybdbde -omodules=subdir,subdir=/dest_dir -oallow_other

tests/scylla_test_all_calls.py is an example test running against the ScyllaDB database. It will insert data in the database, trigger some errors for a while, clear it and let the database recover. After this it will boot up scylla again and check that all commited queries are safe on disk.
