Unfortunately, ceph-common is needed but there are no packages available for el8 (only el7).

Or when is it planned to provides (even as beta) the ceph packages for centos 8 ? We should have el8 packages built Real Soon Now. In the meantime, you don't need ceph-common to mount cephfs; the only real function of mount.ceph is to resolve the monitor name to an IP and pull the secret out of the secretfile. If you specify the monitor IP then mount -t ceph $monip:/ -o secret=$secret,name=... should work. sage _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
