aa-profile-mode | string

Default: disable

Enable apparmor profile. Valid settings: 'complain', 'enforce' or 'disable'. . NOTE: changing the value of this option is disruptive to a running Ceph cluster as all ceph-osd processes must be restarted as part of changing the apparmor profile enforcement mode. Always test in pre-production before enabling AppArmor on a live cluster.

autotune | boolean

Enabling this option will attempt to tune your network card sysctls and hard drive settings. This changes hard drive read ahead settings and max_sectors_kb. For the network card this will detect the link speed and make appropriate sysctl changes. Enabling this option should generally be safe.

availability_zone | string

Custom availability zone to provide to Ceph for the OSD placement

bluestore | boolean

Use experimental bluestore storage format for OSD devices; only supported in Ceph Jewel (10.2.0) or later. . Note that despite bluestore being the default for Ceph Luminous, if this option is False, OSDs will still use filestore.

bluestore-block-db-size | int

Size of a partition or file to use for BlueStore metadata or RocksDB SSTs. A default value is not set as it is calculated by ceph-disk if not specified.

bluestore-block-wal-size | int

Size of a partition or file to use for BlueStore WAL (RocksDB WAL) A default value is not set as it is calculated by ceph-disk if not specified.

bluestore-db | string

Path to a BlueStore WAL db block device or file

bluestore-wal | string

Path to a BlueStore WAL block device or file.

ceph-cluster-network | string

The IP address and netmask of the cluster (back-side) network (e.g., 192.168.0.0/24) . If multiple networks are to be used, a space-delimited list of a.b.c.d/x can be provided.

ceph-public-network | string

The IP address and netmask of the public (front-side) network (e.g., 192.168.0.0/24) . If multiple networks are to be used, a space-delimited list of a.b.c.d/x can be provided.

config-flags | string

User provided Ceph configuration. Supports a string representation of a python dictionary where each top-level key represents a section in the ceph.conf template. You may only use sections supported in the template. . WARNING: this is not the recommended way to configure the underlying services that this charm installs and is used at the user's own risk. This option is mainly provided as a stop-gap for users that either want to test the effect of modifying some config or who have found a critical bug in the way the charm has configured their services and need it fixed immediately. We ask that whenever this is used, that the user consider opening a bug on this charm at http://bugs.launchpad.net/charms providing an explanation of why the config was needed so that we may consider it for inclusion as a natively supported config in the the charm.

crush-initial-weight | float

The initial crush weight for newly added osds into crushmap. Use this option only if you wish to set the weight for newly added OSDs in order to gradually increase the weight over time. Be very aware that setting this overrides the default setting, which can lead to imbalance in the cluster, especially if there are OSDs of different sizes in use. By default, the initial crush weight for the newly added osd is set to its volume size in TB. Leave this option unset to use the default provided by Ceph itself. This option only affects NEW OSDs, not existing ones.

customize-failure-domain | boolean

Setting this to true will tell Ceph to replicate across Juju's Availability Zone instead of specifically by host.

ephemeral-unmount | string

Cloud instances provide ephermeral storage which is normally mounted on /mnt. . Setting this option to the path of the ephemeral mountpoint will force an unmount of the corresponding device so that it can be used as a OSD storage device. This is useful for testing purposes (cloud deployment is not a typical use case).

harden | string

Apply system hardening. Supports a space-delimited list of modules to run. Supported modules currently include os, ssh, apache and mysql.

ignore-device-errors | boolean

By default, the charm will raise errors if a whitelisted device is found, but for some reason the charm is unable to initialize the device for use by Ceph. . Setting this option to 'True' will result in the charm classifying such problems as warnings only and will not result in a hook error.

key | string

Key ID to import to the apt keyring to support use with arbitary source configuration from outside of Launchpad archives or PPA's.

loglevel | int

Default: 1

OSD debug level. Max is 20.

max-sectors-kb | int

Default: 1048576

This parameter will adjust every block device in your server to allow greater IO operation sizes. If you have a RAID card with cache on it consider tuning this much higher than the 1MB default. 1MB is a safe default for spinning HDDs that don't have much cache.

nagios_context | string

Default: juju

Used by the nrpe-external-master subordinate charm. A string that will be prepended to instance name to set the hostname in nagios. So for instance the hostname would be something like: . juju-myservice-0 . If you're running multiple environments with the same services in them this allows you to differentiate between them.

nagios_servicegroups | string

A comma-separated list of nagios servicegroups. If left empty, the nagios_context will be used as the servicegroup

osd-devices | string

Default: /dev/vdb

The devices to format and set up as OSD volumes. . These devices are the range of devices that will be checked for and used across all service units, in addition to any volumes attached via the --storage flag during deployment. . For ceph >= 0.56.6 these can also be directories instead of devices - the charm assumes anything not starting with /dev is a directory instead.

osd-encrypt | boolean

By default, the charm will not encrypt Ceph OSD devices; however, by setting osd-encrypt to True, Ceph's dmcrypt support will be used to encrypt OSD devices. . Specifying this option on a running Ceph OSD node will have no effect until new disks are added, at which point new disks will be encrypted.

osd-format | string

Default: xfs

Format of filesystem to use for OSD devices; supported formats include: . xfs (Default >= 0.48.3) ext4 (Only option < 0.48.3) btrfs (experimental and not recommended) . Only supported with ceph >= 0.48.3.

osd-journal | string

The device to use as a shared journal drive for all OSD's. By default a journal partition will be created on each OSD volume device for use by that OSD. . Only supported with ceph >= 0.48.3.

osd-journal-size | int

Default: 1024

Ceph OSD journal size. The journal size should be at least twice the product of the expected drive speed multiplied by filestore max sync interval. However, the most common practice is to partition the journal drive (often an SSD), and mount it such that Ceph uses the entire partition for the journal. . Only supported with ceph >= 0.48.3.

osd-max-backfills | int

The maximum number of backfills allowed to or from a single OSD. . Setting this option on a running Ceph OSD node will not affect running OSD devices, but will add the setting to ceph.conf for the next restart.

osd-recovery-max-active | int

The number of active recovery requests per OSD at one time. More requests will accelerate recovery, but the requests places an increased load on the cluster. . Setting this option on a running Ceph OSD node will not affect running OSD devices, but will add the setting to ceph.conf for the next restart.

osd-reformat | boolean

By default, the charm will not re-format a device that already looks as if it might be an OSD device. This is a safeguard to try to prevent data loss. . Enabling this option forces a reformat of any OSD devices found which have not been processed by the unit previously or are not already mounted.

prefer-ipv6 | boolean

If True enables IPv6 support. The charm will expect network interfaces to be configured with an IPv6 address. If set to False (default) IPv4 is expected. . NOTE: these charms do not currently support IPv6 privacy extension. In order for this charm to function correctly, the privacy extension must be disabled and a non-temporary address must be configured/available on your network interface.

source | string

Optional configuration to support use of additional sources such as: . - ppa:myteam/ppa - cloud:xenial-proposed/ocata - http://my.archive.com/ubuntu main . The last option should be used in conjunction with the key configuration option.

sysctl | string

Default: { kernel.pid_max : 2097152, vm.max_map_count : 524288, kernel.threads-max: 2097152, vm.vfs_cache_pressure: 1, vm.swappiness: 1 }

YAML-formatted associative array of sysctl key/value pairs to be set persistently. By default we set pid_max, max_map_count and threads-max to a high value to avoid problems with large numbers (>20) of OSDs recovering. very large clusters should set those values even higher (e.g. max for kernel.pid_max is 4194303).

use-direct-io | boolean

Default: True

Configure use of direct IO for OSD journals.

use-syslog | boolean

If set to True, supporting services will log to syslog.
