Description Aron Gunn 2015-10-16 02:13:21 UTC
Description of problem:
In the upcoming release of Ceph Infernalis (v9.1.0 upstream version)[1].  The default user name and group name will be "ceph".  This could cause problems when upgrading the packages from a previous Ceph release, if the "ceph" user already exists.

Section 2.9 is sub-titled correctly in the Ceph Installation Guide[2], but an updated needs to be made to reflect this potential problem, by asking the end-user to remove the "ceph" user before they perform an upgrade.  An upstream tracker issue[3] has also been created to fix the upstream documentation.
