Hallo, first steps in the ceph world. My question: Is there a way to initialise an empty system to be fully configured and active in a ceph cluster. My idea: Booting an empty system using an iso and everything is working some minutes later. Unsig for example pxe and kickstart surely works too but my idea is that an new node perfectly fits in every aspect.
Thank Ralf

Do you mean something like ceph-ansible?

Yes, but 1) the ceph cluster itself is active an working 2) ansible it not an option for the first step but will be later choice number 1 3) for the moment I m looking for a solution like a bare metal recovery solution delivered by several backup-tools as bootable iso-images etc..
