ceph-deploy will create those files for you depending on the init system for the monitors: $ ls /var/lib/ceph/mon/ceph-node1/ done keyring store.db upstart $ cat /etc/issue Ubuntu 12.04 LTS \n \l And the same would happen for OSDs (upstart file is there): $ ls /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-0/ activate.monmap active ceph_fsid current fsid journal keyring magic ready store_version superblock upstart whoami The output in ceph-deploy that tells you what init system will be used is this: [ceph_deploy.osd][INFO ] Distro info: Ubuntu 12.04 precise [ceph_deploy.osd][DEBUG ] activating host node1 disk /home/vagrant/foo [ceph_deploy.osd][DEBUG ] will use init type: upstart Can you share your ceph-deploy output as you are deploying your OSDs?
