The ceph module includes a class from openstacklib and the keystone providers for keystone integration. This change adds in this dependency to the metadata.json to capture this requirement. These are only required for keystone integration if you plan on using the ceph class to set those up. Change-Id: Iab834f775aad54b0545e791337ea7b76a5daee4b

Overview
The ceph module is intended to leverage all Ceph has to offer and allow for a wide range of use case. Although hosted on the OpenStack infrastructure, it does not require to sign a CLA nor is it restricted to OpenStack users. It benefits from a structured development process that helps federate the development effort. Each feature is tested with integration tests involving virtual machines to show that it performs as expected when used with a realistic scenario.
Module Description
The ceph module deploys a Ceph cluster ( MON, OSD ), the Cephfs file system and the RadosGW object store. It provides integration with various environments ( OpenStack ... ) and components to be used by third party puppet modules that depend on a Ceph cluster.
Setup
Implementation
A blueprint contains an inventory of what is desirable. It was decided to start from scratch and implement one module at a time.
Limitations
We follow the OS compatibility of Ceph. With the release of infernalis this is currently:
- CentOS 7 or later
- Debian Jessie 8.x or later
- Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 or later
- Fedora 22 or later
Use Cases
- I want to try this module, heard of ceph, want to see it in action
- I want to operate a production cluster
- I want to run benchmarks on three new machines
Development
git clone https://github.com/openstack/puppet-ceph.git
cd puppet-ceph
sudo gem install bundler
bundle install

Beaker Integration Tests
Relies on rspec-beaker and tests are in spec/acceptance. It also requires Vagrant and Virtualbox .
bundle install
bundle exec rspec spec/acceptance
The BEAKER_set environment variable contains the resource set of linux distribution configurations for which integration tests are going to be run. Available values are
- two-centos-70-x64
- centos-70-x64
- two-ubuntu-server-1404-x64
- ubuntu-server-1404-x64
The default is
BEAKER_set=two-ubuntu-server-1404-x64 \
bundle exec rspec spec/acceptance
