Re: Possible to change the location of run_dir?

[Bryan Banister <bbanister@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

But the socket files are not group writeable:

 

srwxr-xr-x 1 ceph ceph 0 Aug 21 15:58 /var/run/ceph/ceph-mgr.carf-ceph-osd16.asok

 

So users in that group can’t write to that admin socket, which is required for running `ceph --admin-daemon /var/run/ceph/ceph-osd.9.asok perf dump` (what telegraf is trying to run)?

 

Thanks,

-Bryan

You can always add the telegraf user to the ceph group.  That change will persist on reboots and allow the user running the commands to read any folder/file that is owned by the group ceph.  I do this for Zabbix and Nagios now that the /var/lib/ceph folder is not public readable.

We are running telegraf and would like to have the telegraf user read the admin sockets from ceph, which is required for the ceph telegraf plugin to apply the ceph  related tags to the data.  The ceph admin sockets are by default stored in /var/run/ceph, but this is recreated at boot time, so we can’t set permissions on these sockets which will persist.

 

We would like to change the run_dir for ceph to be a persistent directory.  Is there a way to do this?

 

Would be nice if there was a [global] config option or something we could put in the /etc/sysconfig/ceph file.
