Loic pointed out that adding a new config file that is overrides/combines with the global config makes our already-complicated config infrastructure even more so. And it turned out to be more complicated to implement than I'd hoped. On the other hand, I think there are valid use-cases for a global config, e.g.: - most config on the osd disk itself - /etc/ceph/ceph.conf containing crush_location and mon_host ...and with a single config I'm not sure how we'd get the datacenter location set properly. Anyway, I have two versions implemented. The first just adds $data_dir/config to the search pathh: https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/7377 The second adds the extra_config infrastructure. It's just the last patch that is different: https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/7378 Comments? sage -- 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
