Hi, I'm attempting to setup Telegraf <https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf> on a Proxmox <http://proxmox.com> machine to send Ceph information into InfluxDB <https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb>.
I had a few issues around permissions ( https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/issues/5590), but we seem to be nearly sorted out. However, one issue still remains around ceph status. Specifically, it seems to require being able to read /etc/ceph/ceph.conf. For example, if I run sudo under the telegraf user context: root@syd1:/etc/ceph# sudo -u telegraf ceph status 2019-03-16 07:01:37.262708 7f7031e1e700 -1 Errors while parsing config file! 2019-03-16 07:01:37.262712 7f7031e1e700 -1 parse_file: cannot open /etc/ceph/ceph.conf: (13) Permission denied Error initializing cluster client: PermissionDeniedError('error calling conf_read_file',) However, on Proxmox, ceph.conf is a symlink to a file on their pmxcfs <https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Proxmox_Cluster_File_System_(pmxcfs)> file system - which doesn't let you set custom permissions. Is there another way around this, to get ceph status to run under a non-root user? Thanks, Victor
