# Setup Ceph storage via cephadm ###### tags: `ceph` Example of Ceph storage cluster setup via cephadm. I setup Ceph storage for OpenStack to use as "shared" storage which allow "live-migration" of instance. OpenStack setup: https://hackmd.io/v2HFpS2AS8CVXiv_I2svZg (kolla-ansible) #### Environment ``` IP Address hostname Ceph Node ----------------------------------------- 192.168.1.23 nuc111 deploy & mon 192.168.1.24 nuc71 osd 192.168.1.25 nuc72 osd 192.168.1.26 nuc73 osd ``` The nuc111 will be deploy node, and initial ceph monitor host. (cephadm will auto add 2 addtional monitors automatically base on cluster size) The nuc71, nuc72 and nuc73 are OSD hosts, they have additional disk /dev/sdb (usb 3.0 drive) for OSD drive. #### Steps Create **cephadmin** user and set to sudoer ``` root@nuc111:~# useradd -m -s /bin/bash cephadmin root@nuc111:~# passwd cephadmin New password: Retype new password: passwd: password updated successfully root@nuc111:~# echo "cephadmin ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL" >> /etc/sudoers.d/cephadmin root@nuc111:~# ls /etc/sudoers.d/ cephadmin README root@nuc111:~# chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers.d/cephadmin ``` Install **cephadm** tool ``` root@nuc111:~# apt install cephadm Reading package lists...
