restful plugin
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
RESTful plugin offers the REST API access to the status of the cluster
|
|
over an SSL-secured connection.
|
|
|
|
Enabling
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
The *restful* module is enabled with::
|
|
|
|
ceph mgr module enable restful
|
|
|
|
You will also need to configure an SSL certificate below before the
|
|
API endpoint is available. By default the module will accept HTTPS
|
|
requests on port ``8003`` on all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses on the host.
|
|
|
|
Securing
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
All connections to *restful* are secured with SSL. You can generate a
|
|
self-signed certificate with the command::
|
|
|
|
ceph restful create-self-signed-cert
|
|
|
|
Note that with a self-signed certificate most clients will need a flag
|
|
to allow a connection and/or suppress warning messages. For example,
|
|
if the ``ceph-mgr`` daemon is on the same host,::
|
|
|
|
curl -k https://localhost:8003/
|
|
|
|
To properly secure a deployment, a certificate that is signed by the
|
|
organization's certificate authority should be used. For example, a key pair
|
|
can be generated with a command similar to::
|
|
|
|
openssl req -new -nodes -x509 \
|
|
-subj "/O=IT/CN=ceph-mgr-restful" \
|
|
-days 3650 -keyout restful.key -out restful.crt -extensions v3_ca
|
|
|
|
The ``restful.crt`` should then be signed by your organization's CA
|
|
(certificate authority). Once that is done, you can set it with::
|
|
|
|
ceph config-key set mgr/restful/$name/crt -i restful.crt
|
|
ceph config-key set mgr/restful/$name/key -i restful.key
|
|
|
|
where ``$name`` is the name of the ``ceph-mgr`` instance (usually the
|
|
hostname). If all manager instances are to share the same certificate,
|
|
you can leave off the ``$name`` portion::
|
|
|
|
ceph config-key set mgr/restful/crt -i restful.crt
|
|
ceph config-key set mgr/restful/key -i restful.key
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configuring IP and port
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
Like any other RESTful API endpoint, *restful* binds to an IP and
|
|
port. By default, the currently active ``ceph-mgr`` daemon will bind
|
|
to port 8003 and any available IPv4 or IPv6 address on the host.
|
|
|
|
Since each ``ceph-mgr`` hosts its own instance of *restful*, it may
|
|
also be necessary to configure them separately. The IP and port
|
|
can be changed via the configuration key facility::
|
|
|
|
ceph config-key set mgr/restful/$name/server_addr $IP
|
|
ceph config-key set mgr/restful/$name/server_port $PORT
|
|
|
|
where ``$name`` is the ID of the ceph-mgr daemon (usually the hostname).
|
|
|
|
These settings can also be configured cluster-wide and not manager
|
|
specific. For example,::
|
|
|
|
ceph config-key set mgr/restful/server_addr $IP
|
|
ceph config-key set mgr/restful/server_port $PORT
|
|
|
|
If the port is not configured, *restful* will bind to port ``8003``.
|
|
If the address it not configured, the *restful* will bind to ``::``,
|
|
which corresponds to all available IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
|
|
|
|
Load balancer
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Please note that *restful* will *only* start on the manager which
|
|
is active at that moment. Query the Ceph cluster status to see which
|
|
manager is active (e.g., ``ceph mgr dump``). In order to make the
|
|
API available via a consistent URL regardless of which manager
|
|
daemon is currently active, you may want to set up a load balancer
|
|
front-end to direct traffic to whichever manager endpoint is
|
|
available.
