Preflight Checklist
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 0.60
|
|
|
|
This **Preflight Checklist** will help you prepare an admin host for use with
|
|
``ceph-deploy``, and server hosts for use with passwordless ``ssh`` and
|
|
``sudo``.
|
|
|
|
Before you can deploy Ceph using ``ceph-deploy``, you need to ensure that you
|
|
have a few things set up first on your admin host and on hosts running Ceph
|
|
daemons.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install an Operating System
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
Install a recent release of Debian or Ubuntu (e.g., 12.04, 12.10) on your
|
|
hosts. For additional details on operating systems or to use other operating
|
|
systems other than Debian or Ubuntu, see `OS Recommendations`_.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install an SSH Server
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
The ``ceph-deploy`` utility requires ``ssh``, so your server host(s) require an
|
|
SSH server. ::
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install openssh-server
|
|
|
|
|
|
Create a User
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Create a user on hosts running Ceph daemons.
|
|
|
|
.. tip:: We recommend a username that brute force attackers won't
|
|
guess easily (e.g., something other than ``root``, ``ceph``, etc).
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
ssh user@ceph-server
|
|
sudo useradd -d /home/ceph -m ceph
|
|
sudo passwd ceph
|
|
|
|
|
|
``ceph-deploy`` installs packages onto your hosts. This means that
|
|
the user you create requires passwordless ``sudo`` privileges.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: We **DO NOT** recommend enabling the ``root`` password
|
|
for security reasons.
|
|
|
|
To provide full privileges to the user, add the following to
|
|
``/etc/sudoers.d/ceph``. ::
|
|
|
|
echo "ceph ALL = (root) NOPASSWD:ALL" | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/ceph
|
|
sudo chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers.d/ceph
|
|
|
|
|
|
Configure SSH
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Configure your admin machine with password-less SSH access to each host
|
|
running Ceph daemons (leave the passphrase empty). ::
|
|
|
|
ssh-keygen
|
|
Generating public/private key pair.
|
|
Enter file in which to save the key (/ceph-client/.ssh/id_rsa):
|
|
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
|
|
Enter same passphrase again:
|
|
Your identification has been saved in /ceph-client/.ssh/id_rsa.
|
|
Your public key has been saved in /ceph-client/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
|
|
|
|
Copy the key to each host running Ceph daemons::
|
|
|
|
ssh-copy-id ceph@ceph-server
|
|
|
|
Modify your ~/.ssh/config file of your admin host so that it defaults
|
|
to logging in as the user you created when no username is specified. ::
|
|
|
|
Host ceph-server
|
|
Hostname ceph-server.fqdn-or-ip-address.com
|
|
User ceph
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install git
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
To clone the ``ceph-deploy`` repository, you will need install ``git``
|
|
on your admin host. ::
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install git
|
|
|
|
|
|
Clone ceph-deploy
|
|
=================
|
|
|
|
To begin working with ``ceph-deploy``, clone its repository. ::
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/ceph/ceph-deploy.git ceph-deploy
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install python-virtualenv
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
To bootstrap ``ceph-deploy`` and run it, you must install the
|
|
``python-virtualenv`` package. ::
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bootstrap ceph-deploy
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
After you clone the repository, bootstrap ``ceph-deploy``. ::
|
|
|
|
cd ceph-deploy
|
|
./bootstrap
|
|
|
|
Add ``ceph-deploy`` to your path so that so that you can execute it without
|
|
remaining in ``ceph-deploy`` directory (e.g., ``/etc/environment``,
|
|
``~/.pam_environment``). Once you have completed this pre-flight checklist, you
|
|
are ready to begin using ``ceph-deploy``.
