Description Alexandre Marangone 2016-12-06 17:44:44 UTC
Description of problem:
From the documentation on OSP-9[1] is unclear how to define configuration for Ceph (e.g. osd_recovery_max_active).
We need to document how to add Ceph config options under [global], [mon], and [osd].

Comment 1 Giulio Fidente 2016-12-07 16:08:24 UTC
We have some docs about this upstream at [1], more specifically not the example describing how to override puppet-ceph settings but the one about arbitrary stanza/key/value lines

1. http://tripleo.org/advanced_deployment/ceph_config.html

Comment 2 Alexandre Marangone 2016-12-07 17:11:04 UTC
That's pretty much exactly what I think we need to add to our downstream doc.

However, there's a mistake in the upstream doc.

the resulting ceph.conf file should be populated with the following:
[global]
max_open_files: 131072
my_setting: my_value

should be
[global]
max_open_files = 131072
my_setting = my_value

hi Alexandre, we should fix that upstream yes :) thanks.

Comment 7 Dan Macpherson 2016-12-10 14:58:16 UTC
I think I understand. It's not an either/or situation, but more "Use Method 1. If it's not covered by Method 1, use Method 2."
