Description

ceph is a control utility which is used for manual deployment and maintenance of a Ceph cluster. It provides a diverse set of commands that allows deployment of monitors, OSDs, placement groups, MDS and overall maintenance, administration of the cluster.

Commands

auth

Manage authentication keys. It is used for adding, removing, exporting or updating of authentication keys for a particular  entity such as a monitor or OSD. It uses some additional subcommands.

Subcommand add adds authentication info for a particular entity from input file, or random key if no input is given and/or any caps specified in the command.

Usage:

ceph auth add <entity> {<caps> [<caps>...]}

Subcommand caps updates caps for name from caps specified in the command.

Usage:

ceph auth caps <entity> <caps> [<caps>...]

Subcommand del deletes all caps for name.

Usage:

ceph auth del <entity>

Subcommand export writes keyring for requested entity, or master keyring if none given.

Usage:

Subcommand get writes keyring file with requested key.

Usage:

ceph auth get <entity>

Subcommand get-key displays requested key.

Usage:

ceph auth get-key <entity>

Subcommand get-or-create adds authentication info for a particular entity from input file, or random key if no input given and/or any caps specified in the command.

Usage:

ceph auth get-or-create <entity> {<caps> [<caps>...]}

Subcommand get-or-create-key gets or adds key for name from system/caps pairs specified in the command.  If key already exists, any given caps must match the existing caps for that key.

Usage:

ceph auth get-or-create-key <entity> {<caps> [<caps>...]}

Subcommand import reads keyring from input file.

Usage:

ceph auth import

Subcommand ls lists authentication state.

Usage:

compact

Causes compaction of monitor's RocksDB storage.

Usage:

ceph compact

config

Configure the cluster. By default, Ceph daemons and clients retrieve their configuration options from monitor when they start, and are updated if any of the tracked options is changed at run time. It uses following additional subcommand.

Subcommand dump to dump all options for the cluster

Usage:

ceph config dump

Subcommand ls to list all option names for the cluster

Usage:

ceph config ls

Subcommand help to describe the specified configuration option

Usage:

ceph config help <option>

Subcommand get to dump the option(s) for the specified entity.

Usage:

ceph config get <who> {<option>}

Subcommand show to display the running configuration of the specified entity. Please note, unlike get, which only shows the options managed by monitor, show displays all the configurations being actively used. These options are pulled from several sources, for instance, the compiled-in default value, the monitor's configuration database, ceph.conf file on the host. The options can even be overridden at runtime. So, there is chance that the configuration options in the output of show could be different from those in the output of get.

Usage:

ceph config show {<who>}

Subcommand show-with-defaults to display the running configuration along with the compiled-in defaults of the specified entity

features

Show the releases and features of all connected daemons and clients connected to the cluster, along with the numbers of them in each bucket grouped by the corresponding features/releases. Each release of Ceph supports a different set of features, expressed by the features bitmask. New cluster features require that clients support the feature, or else they are not allowed to connect to these new features. As new features or capabilities are enabled after an upgrade, older clients are prevented from connecting.

Usage:

Subcommand destroy marks OSD id as destroyed, removing its cephx entity's keys and all of its dm-crypt and daemon-private config key entries.

This command will not remove the OSD from crush, nor will it remove the OSD from the OSD map. Instead, once the command successfully completes, the OSD will show marked as destroyed.

In order to mark an OSD as destroyed, the OSD must first be marked as lost.

Usage:

ceph osd destroy <id> {--yes-i-really-mean-it}

--setuser user

will apply the appropriate user ownership to the file specified by the option '-o'.

--setgroup group

will apply the appropriate group ownership to the file specified by the option '-o'.

-c ceph.conf, --conf=ceph.conf

Use ceph.conf configuration file instead of the default /etc/ceph/ceph.conf to determine monitor addresses during startup.

--id CLIENT_ID, --user CLIENT_ID

Client id for authentication.

--name CLIENT_NAME, -n CLIENT_NAME

Client name for authentication.

--cluster CLUSTER

Name of the Ceph cluster.

--no-increasing is off by default. So increasing the osd weight is allowed using the reweight-by-utilization or test-reweight-by-utilization commands. If this option is used with these commands, it will help not to increase osd weight even the osd is under utilized.

--block

block until completion (scrub and deep-scrub only)
