Hi, The ceph-deploy suse back-end currently pulls down and installs packages from ceph.com. As we move to shipping Ceph with our own SES / openSUSE media, I'd like to allow users to also install from the distribution repositories using upstream ceph-deploy. Use of bundled Red Hat distribution packages is currently possible via the rhel back-end, which is enabled with hosts.get(@use_rhceph=true). For SUSE based distributions, I'd like to proceed with one of the following options: 1) Rename @use_rhceph to @use_bundled_ceph, and add new sles/opensuse back-ends. 2) Change the suse back-end install() function to always use distribution packages. The mirror_install(repo) logic triggered by --repo-url can continue to be used for installations from other (e.g. ceph.com) sources. 3) Pass a @bundled argument to the distro back-end install() function, and implement the conditional logic there. Any thoughts / preferences? I'm leaning towards (2), given that http://ceph.com/rpm-$release doesn't carry openSUSE or SLES packages for recent releases.
