Alex Elder 1b2a0669b9 ceph-kdump-copy: add tools for saving kdumps
This puts in place an init script and a command it runs to save a
kernel core dump to a remote server when a panic or other kernel
failure occurs.  The content of a crash file generated by the
"kdump" init script (which uses the Ubuntu "apport" kernel_crashdump
command) is re-packaged and copied (via scp) to a remote server
specified by variables in /etc/default/ceph-kdump-copy.  This
packaging (as well as the work done by the apport script) is done
on the next boot of the kernel following a crash.


Note:  Although the init script, its config file, and shell script
are known to work, the packaging of these things should not be
expected to be.  I (now) know, for example, that the init script
belongs in src/init-ceph-kdump-copy.in if it is to follow the
pattern used by the ceph init script.  And there are likely other
problems with the build/install portions of this patch.

Ceph - a scalable distributed storage system
-----------------------------------------

Please see http://ceph.newdream.net/ for current info.

----

To build the server daemons, and FUSE client,

$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make

(Note that the FUSE client will only be built if libfuse is present.)

----

A quick summary of binaries that will be built in src/

daemons:
 ceph-mon -- monitor daemon.  handles cluster state and configuration
         information.
 ceph-osd -- storage daemon.  stores objects on a given block device.
 ceph-mds -- metadata daemon.  handles file system namespace.
 ceph-fuse -- fuse client.

tools:
 ceph -- send management commands to the monitor cluster.
 rados -- interact with the object store
 rbd -- manipulate rados block device images
 monmaptool -- create/edit mon map
 osdmaptool -- create/edit osd map 
 crushtool -- create/edit crush map

scripts:
 mkcephfs -- cluster mkfs tool
 init-ceph -- init.d start/stop script
