Dear Ceph-dev team,
My name is Piyawath. I’m trying to set up Ceph on university’s machine.
Unfortunately, I am able to install/set up it in user mode (not root), including creating Ceph user and other processes. Is it possible to do set up without root privilege ?
I’m quite new in this field, please forgive me if I ignorantly asked you.
Hi,
I guess if you're installing as non-root then you probably just want
something to experiment with a bit?
The easiest thing may be to compile from source:
http://ceph.com/docs/next/install/build-ceph/
...and then create a temporary "vstart" cluster:
http://ceph.com/docs/next/dev/quick_guide/
This is not at all suitable for putting any real data in, but will let
you play around a bit with the ceph command line etc. If you need a
more realistic system I would suggest asking your administrator for a
way to create virtual machines, so that you can have root in the virtual
machines and install packages there.
