Ceph RADOS Mutex 7 ctdb CTDB - clustered TDB database ctdb_mutex_ceph_rados_helper Ceph RADOS cluster mutex helper DESCRIPTION ctdb_mutex_ceph_rados_helper can be used as a recovery lock provider for CTDB. When configured, split brain avoidance during CTDB recovery will be handled using locks against an object located in a Ceph RADOS pool. To enable this functionality, include the following line in the [cluster] section of ctdb.conf 5: recovery lock = !ctdb_mutex_ceph_rados_helper [Cluster] [User] [Pool] [Object] Cluster: Ceph cluster name (e.g. ceph) User: Ceph cluster user name (e.g. client.admin) Pool: Ceph RADOS pool name Object: Ceph RADOS object name The Ceph cluster Cluster must be up and running, with a configuration, and keyring file for User located in a librados default search path (e.g. /etc/ceph/). Pool must already exist.
