When ceph-deploy creates a ceph.conf, it does not contain the hostname of the osd systems. 1. in the even when the cluster goes down (due to a power outage or some other reason), how can one get information about the system to help debug a problem or bring the cluster up? 2. Also, i noticed the command /etc/init.d/ceph -a start/stop or service ceph start/stop performs the action on the current host only but not to all host. We have seen this behavior on Centos. Also on Ubuntu it does not work. Therefore how does one start and stop the entire cluster without running the command on every individual host?
