Configuring RADOS

So… assuming everything went according to plan… you should now have RADOS running:

validating radosgw is running: Service status

root@px-m-45:/tmp/ceph-px-m-45# service radosgw status
● radosgw.service - LSB: radosgw RESTful rados gateway
     Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/radosgw; generated)
     Active: active (running) since Thu 2023-01-26 22:16:32 CST; 1 weeks 3 days ago
       Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)
      Tasks: 603 (limit: 618787)
     Memory: 370.3M
        CPU: 1h 2min 15.883s
     CGroup: /system.slice/radosgw.service
             └─90606 /bin/radosgw -n client.radosgw.px-m-45

Adding radosgw to /etc/services allows tools like netstat to resolve that for you.
I’m showing the output of netstat with/without service-name resolution here:

So Now What? #

Okay! COOL! So RADOS is running! Wahoo!!!

Now what?

Well,

Creation of an administrative user account #

FIRST, we need to create an admin user for global administration.

radosgw - Creation of global admin user

radosgw-admin user create --uid=admin --system \
  --display-name="WolfspyreLabs Admin" \ 
  --email="admin@example.com"

The Output: #

    "subusers": [],
    "keys": [
        {

            "secret_key": "CODEMONKEYLIKETABANDMOUNTAINDEWCODEMONKEYLIKEYOU"
        }
    ],

    "caps": [],

        "max_objects": -1
    },
    "temp_url_keys": [],
    "type": "rgw",
    "mfa_ids": []
}

IF you use the ceph-dashboard, there’s some enablement to perform there.

Using Ceph Dashboard? #

Optional: Ceph Dashboard integration Click to Expand ↩⤵

[The ceph documentation] for the OSG Dashboard integration is pretty straight forward. ### Creation of a dashboard adminuser account

radosgw - Creation of global admin user

radosgw-admin user create --uid=dashboardadmin --system \
  --display-name="WolfspyreLabs Dashboard Admin" \ 
  --email="dashadmin@example.com"

The Output: #

    "suspended": 0,
    "max_buckets": 1000,
    "subusers": [],
    "keys": [
        {
            "user": "dashboardadmin",
            "access_key": "CODEMONKEYLIKEFRETOS",
            "secret_key": "CODEMONKEYLIKETABANDMOUNTAINDEWCODEMONKEYLIKEYOU"

        "max_objects": -1
    },
    "temp_url_keys": [],
    "type": "rgw",
    "mfa_ids": []
}

After you've created the dashboard admin user, g/a and set these credentials in the dashboard:
