What caps are necessary for FUSE-mounts of the FS?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello!

The documentation at <http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/cephfs/fuse/> states:

"""
Before mounting a Ceph File System in User Space (FUSE), ensure that
the client host has a copy of the Ceph configuration file and a
keyring with CAPS for the Ceph metadata server.
"""

Now, I have two questions:

1. What capabilities should be given to the FS user in the keyring?
Would this be creating a keyring file with the minimally-required caps
to mount the FS read+write?

        ceph-authtool --create-keyring ceph.fs.keyring --gen-key
--caps mds 'allow rwx'

2. Is the full config file needed on the client?  Or is it that just
the MON addresses are needed? In the latter case, is it enough to pass
the MON addr:port through the `-m` option and *not* have a `ceph.conf`
file?

Thanks for any help!

Riccardo
