===========================
Windows basic configuration
===========================

This page describes the minimum Ceph configuration required for using the
client components on Windows.

ceph.conf
=========

The default location for the ``ceph.conf`` file on Windows is
``%ProgramData%\ceph\ceph.conf``, which usually expands to
``C:\ProgramData\ceph\ceph.conf``.

Below you may find a sample. Please fill in the monitor addresses
accordingly.

.. code:: ini

    [global]
        log to stderr = true
        ; Uncomment the following in order to use the Windows Event Log
        ; log to syslog = true

        run dir = C:/ProgramData/ceph/out
        crash dir = C:/ProgramData/ceph/out

        ; Use the following to change the cephfs client log level
        ; debug client = 2
    [client]
        keyring = C:/ProgramData/ceph/keyring
        ; log file = C:/ProgramData/ceph/out/$name.$pid.log
        admin socket = C:/ProgramData/ceph/out/$name.$pid.asok

        ; client_permissions = true
        ; client_mount_uid = 1000
        ; client_mount_gid = 1000
    [global]
        mon host = <ceph_monitor_addresses>

Don't forget to also copy your keyring file to the specified location and make
sure that the configured directories exist (e.g. ``C:\ProgramData\ceph\out``).

Please use slashes ``/`` instead of backslashes ``\`` as path separators
within ``ceph.conf``.
