I think we need to discuss the exact use-cases here since the requirement is not clear

Comment 4 Christina Meno 2016-02-11 22:44:57 UTC
I met with Dusmant and we agreed
If we provide this functionality USM will be responsible for validating/dealing with the result in the cases where we would be asked to perform an operation that damages the clusters ability to store data

Comment 5 Christina Meno 2016-03-01 17:29:01 UTC
Andrew does ceph-ansible have this capability

Comment 6 Andrew Schoen 2016-03-21 17:18:24 UTC
ceph-ansible does not currently have the ability.

Comment 9 Jeff Applewhite 2016-10-14 13:13:49 UTC
what is the status of this in ansible presently - still not addressed?
