Lots of installations have significant automation and processes built around ceph-deploy.
And few resources to repeatedly perform deep retrofits to accomodate moving targets.
Heck, I still struggle to understand why the mon time sync status was moved.
ceph-ansible has matured nicely, but it doesn’t meet everyone’s needs.
cephadm in Octopus doesn’t retroactively manage clusters running older releases, and from
what I can see on ceph-users it’s not mature. Heck I’m likely to wait for Pacific to give
it time to work out the kinks.
Those running production workloads don’t have the option of throwing everything away and
starting from scratch.

should check with ceph-devel as well. so i am forwarding this mail to
ceph-devel for more inputs.

hi ceph maintainers,
when reviewing ceph-deploy PRs, i am wondering why are we still
maintaining this tool. as IIUC, we are supposed to deploy ceph using
the Ansible playbooks offered by ceph-ansble[0]. and in future, we are
more likely to deploy a ceph cluster using cephadm[1].
so the question is, are you still packaging / using ceph-deploy?
cheers,
