I did it mostly to learn about docker (and because i wanted a 'cluster in the office' like Loic had :-)). Not incredibly pretty though. Usually i go with vagrant to deploy ceph in a box (1 mon, 2 osds) in an lxc container, with file loopback mounts and using the puppet module to deploy/config (whi

The packer solution sounds sensible to me as it also would allow the creation of Docker images. A basic Docker image has already been started (https://index.docker.io/u/rochaporto/cephbox/) but it would be quite useful to have a version that comes from an official maintained source. On Tue, Feb 2

Hi Sebastien, so that’s great. It’s already almost done. Let us know when you have managed updating it. I suppose it would be best if we could offer one image each of the last 3 Ceph versions (dumpling, emperor and firefly) so people can then play with the expected level they are looking for

I think it would be interesting. I am actually using a shell script written by Loic Dachary from his blog (http://dachary.org/?p=2374). The ceph-standalone package would be very useful for fast appropriation and understanding of Ceph. This kind of installation can facilitate client functional

This seems quite useful and could improve the user experience. This looks more or less like a ceph-deploy wrapper to me and shouldn’t be that difficult to make (except for the RGW part since nothing is there). A simple bash script could be used I guess. I just wonder if it’s worth investing into
