Hi Max,
As far as I know, cross access of Ceph pools is needed for copy on write
feature which enables fast cloning/snapshotting. For example, nova and
cinder users need to read to images pool to do copy on write from such an
image. So, it seems that Ceph policy from the previous URL can be modified
to be like the following.
*ceph auth get-or-create client.nova mon 'profile rbd' osd 'profile rbd
pool=vms, profile rbd-read-only pool=images' mgr 'profile rbd pool=vmsceph
auth get-or-create client.cinder mon 'profile rbd' osd 'profile rbd
pool=volumes, profile rbd-read-only pool=images' mgr 'profile rbd
pool=volumes *
Since it is just read access, I think this will not be a matter. I hope you
are right that cross writing is API based. What do you think?
Best regards,

Hi Max,
I see, it is very helpful and inspired, thank you for that. I assume that
you use the same way for Nova ephemeral (nova user to vms pool).
As for now i dont' use any non-cinder volumes in cluster.
How do you put the policy for cross pools access
between them? I mean
nova
user to images and volumes pools, cinder user to
images, vms and backups
pools, and of course cinder-backup user to volumes pool. I think each
user
will need that cross pools access and will not be
a problem on reading
since EC data pool has been defined per RBD image on creation. But, how
about writing, do you think that there will be no cross pools writing?
You have to notice: all OpenStack services are interacting with each other
using
api calls and message queues, not accessing data, databases and files
directly.
Any of them may be deployed as standalone. The only glue for them is
Keystone.
