Appendix A. General configuration options
Appendix A. General configuration options These are the general configuration options for Ceph. Note Typically, these will be set automatically by deployment tools, such as cephadm . fsid Description The file system ID. One per cluster. Type UUID Required No. Default N/A. Usually generated by deployment tools. admin_socket Description The socket for executing administrative commands on a daemon, irrespective of whether Ceph monitors have established a quorum. Type String Required No Default /var/run/ceph/USDcluster-USDname.asok pid_file Description The file in which the monitor or OSD will write its PID. For instance, /var/run/USDcluster/USDtype.USDid.pid will create /var/run/ceph/mon.a.pid for the mon with id a running in the ceph cluster. The pid file is removed when the daemon stops gracefully. If the process is not daemonized (meaning it runs with the -f or -d option), the pid file is not created. Type String Required No Default No chdir Description The directory Ceph daemons change to once they are up and running. Default / directory recommended. Type String Required No Default / max_open_files Description If set, when the Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster starts, Ceph sets the max_open_fds at the OS level (that is, the max # of file descriptors). It helps prevent Ceph OSDs from running out of file descriptors. Type 64-bit Integer Required No Default 0 fatal_signal_handlers Description If set, we will install signal handlers for SEGV, ABRT, BUS, ILL, FPE, XCPU, XFSZ, SYS signals to generate a useful log message. Type Boolean Default true
