Start of ceph_facts (tested on bobtail)

[jcftang]

This module currently dumps out facts for the ceph distributed object store.

• 'quorum_status' information (effectively 'mon' information)
• 'osd' information
  • Also the osd tree
• 'mds' information
• 'rados df' information

it assumes that the machine that is being logged into has the correct ceph
authentication/permissions setup

It's here, though I'm not sure how much use this will be to others (I'd imagine anyone looking at using ceph to back openstack would be interested in this)

Probably a bit niche, host on your github as a seperate repo and send me a link? I can put it in the contrib section.

I do what to get more of the OpenStack folks together though, perhaps an ansible-OpenStack repo?

sounds like a reasonable thing to be doing to setup a self-contained repo for the ceph_facts or something abit more useful like an ansible-openstack repo.

is there a movement for doing something like that? -- should close this PR and move the discussion to the mailing list or irc.

FYI - the ceph_facts module is here -- git@github.com:jcftang/ansible-ceph_facts.git it's working well enough for what I need. Though it might change a little with how the json output is structured.

Thanks!

Sure thing, I started a thread about the repo on the mailing list and will
likely start one later this week or early next.

Ok, re-opening as a reminder!

[mpdehaan]

vendor stuff is going to be mainlined, most likely, I'll link to this one though

[mpdehaan]

shoot me a link of a ceph-facts repo and I can link to it. Closing for now.

Thanks!
