MOUNT.FUSE.CEPH(8)

NAME
mount.fuse.ceph - mount ceph-fuse from /etc/fstab.

SYNOPSIS
mount.fuse.ceph [-h] [-o OPTIONS [OPTIONS ...]]
device [device ...]
mountpoint [mount point ...]

DESCRIPTION

mount.fuse.ceph is a helper for mounting ceph-fuse from /etc/fstab.

To use mount.fuse.ceph, add an entry in /etc/fstab like:

    DEVICE    PATH        TYPE        OPTIONS
    none      /mnt/ceph   fuse.ceph   ceph.id=admin,_netdev,defaults  0 0
    none      /mnt/ceph   fuse.ceph   ceph.name=client.admin,_netdev,defaults  0 0
    none      /mnt/ceph   fuse.ceph   ceph.id=myuser,ceph.conf=/etc/ceph/foo.conf,_netdev,defaults  0 0

ceph-fuse options are specified in the OPTIONS column and must begin with 'ceph.' prefix. This way ceph related fs options will be passed to ceph-fuse and others will be ignored by ceph-fuse.

OPTIONS

ceph.id=<username>
    Specify that the ceph-fuse will authenticate as the given user.

ceph.name=client.admin
    Specify that the ceph-fuse will authenticate as client.admin

ceph.conf=/etc/ceph/foo.conf
    Sets 'conf' option to /etc/ceph/foo.conf via ceph-fuse command line.

    Any valid ceph-fuse options can be passed this way.

ADDITIONAL INFO

The old format /etc/fstab entries are also supported:

    DEVICE                              PATH        TYPE        OPTIONS
    id=admin                            /mnt/ceph   fuse.ceph   defaults   0 0
    id=myuser,conf=/etc/ceph/foo.conf   /mnt/ceph   fuse.ceph   defaults   0 0
