Also, a running ceph cluster will (probably!) not read anything useful out of etcd later on, since it keeps its own databases for all keys. Hence, the specific question about "I have ceph running, it was deployed using scripts and etcd for transport of keys, then it bombs out and for reason X, all etcd files are gone but rest is still there, then it boots up" should probably give you a working ceph cluster back, assuming no other part (like network configs, firewall rules or so) needs etcd for its own purposes. If the OS is gone, or all of /etc is gone or something like that, then the machine will not boot and ceph will not run but that is kind of obvious. -- May the most significant bit of your life be positive.
