We see a lot of demand for Chef, but don't want to tie our hands -- Canonical is working on Juju Charms, and I would like to see a mkcephfs replacement that relies on just SSH connections from a workstation node. We've made an explicit effort to improve the product as a whole, and to make the Chef cookbook as thin as possible. For some reason, the threading is broken on the archive, but this is a fragment of the most recent thread that talked about this: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.ceph.devel/8263/focus=8265 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
