Dear Cephers...

1./ I am currently deploying infernalis 9.2.0 in centos7.

2./ I am not using ceph-deploy (I prefer not to use it) and I prefer to use the short form osd installation procedure described here:

   http://docs.ceph.com/docs/infernalis/install/manual-deployment/#short-form

3./ In hammer this instructions worked fine but in infernalis 9.2.0, which the implementation of the ceph user running the ceph daemons, those instructions do not seem to work properly anymore.

4./ Here is the behaviour:

    4.1/ ceph-disk prepare runs fine:

   # ceph-disk prepare --cluster ceph --cluster-uuid
   a9431bc6-3ee1-4b0a-8d21-0ad883a4d2ed --fs-type xfs /dev/sdh /dev/sdc3

   the same device as the osd data

4.2/ ceph-disk activate fails with permission problems. It seems some temporary directory us made by root which is then not accessible to ceph user.

   # ceph-disk activate /dev/sdh1

   '--setgroup', 'ceph']' returned non-zero exit status 1

4.3 If I run the the ceph activate command as a ceph user, it complains it need root permissions to mount


   # su ceph -s /bin/bash --session-command="ceph-disk activate /dev/sdh1"
   Problem opening /dev/sdh for reading! Error is 13.
   You must run this program as root or use sudo!
   mount: only root can use "--options" option
   ceph-disk: Mounting filesystem failed: Command '['/usr/bin/mount',
   '-t', 'xfs', '-o', 'noatime,inode64', '--', '/dev/sdh1',
   '/var/lib/ceph/tmp/mnt.0bUl5q']' returned non-zero exit status 1

5./ So there is an incoherence on this set of instructions.

Is there a way to solve / patch that solves this?

Cheers
Goncalo
