Hi Ken, Kefu

No we did not have EPEL-7 enabled. We can add it, it would be the same for us 
as adding efficios although slightly more reusable ☺
Am I correct in assuming that lttng is only used for debugging and/or 
development work ? If that is true, is it perhaps possible to build ceph in 
such a way that lttng is used when available, but that it’s not a problem when 
it’s not available? That way we wouldn’t need to install lttng at all. If lttng 
is used for many more reasons than debugging (maybe for normal monitoring?) 
then it’s fine this way. I guess I just don’t want to install stuff I won’t be 
using.

Thanks,


Max
