If you don't want the new syntax, 1.5.38 is what you want. Would like to point out a couple of things here: * ceph-deploy has a pretty good changelog that gets updated for every release. The 2.0.0 release has a backwards incompatibility notice explaining much of the issues you've raised: http://docs.ceph.com/ceph-deploy/docs/changelog.html * Deploying to directories is not supported anymore with ceph-deploy, and soon to be impossible in Ceph with tooling. If you are trying to replicate production environments with smaller devices, you can still do this with some manual work: ceph-deploy (and ceph-volume on the remote machine) can consume logical volumes, which could be easily set up to be on a loop device. That is what we do for some of the functional testing: we create sparse files of 10GB and attach them to a loop device, then create an LV on top. >> > > Not that old now.. but eventually it will be. :) > > The goal was to revisit our deployment tools later (after getting the rest of the service working) and replace ceph-deploy with direct configuration of all the machines, so maybe having a deprecated piece of software around that needs to be replaced will help with that motivation when the time comes. > > Thanks for your help! > Matt > > > _______________________________________________ > ceph-users mailing list > ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
