Overview

Ceph is a unified, distributed storage system designed for excellent performance, reliability, and scalability.

The ceph-proxy charm deploys a proxy that acts as a ceph-mon application for an external Ceph cluster. It joins a non-charmed Ceph cluster to a Juju model.

Usage

Configuration

This section covers common and/or important configuration options. See file config.yaml for the full list of options, along with their descriptions and default values. See the Juju documentation for details on configuring applications.

`fsid`

The fsid option supplies the UUID of the external cluster.

`admin-key`

The admin-key option supplies the admin Cephx key of the external cluster.

`monitor-hosts`

The monitor-hosts option supplies the network addresses (and ports) of the Monitors of the external cluster.

Deployment

Let file ceph-proxy.yaml contain the deployment configuration:

    ceph-proxy:
        fsid: a4f1fb08-c83d-11ea-8f4a-635b3b062931
        admin-key: AQCJvBFfWX+GLhAAln5dFd1rZekcGLyMmy58bQ==
        monitor-hosts: '10.246.114.21:6789 10.246.114.22:6789 10.246.114.7:6789'

To deploy:

juju deploy --config ceph-proxy.yaml ceph-proxy

Now add relations as you normally would between a ceph-mon application and another application, except substitute ceph-proxy for ceph-mon. For instance, to use the external Ceph cluster as the backend for an existing glance application:

juju add-relation ceph-proxy:client glance:ceph

Actions

Many of the ceph-mon charm's actions are supported. See file actions.yaml for the full list of actions, along with their descriptions.
