Hi Robert,
this is a bit less trivial than it might look right now. The ceph user is
usually created by installing the package ceph-common. By default it will use
id 167. If the ceph user already exists, I would assume it will use the
existing user to allow an operator to avoid UID collisions (if 167 is used
already).
If you use docker, the ceph UID on the host and inside the container should
match (or need to be translated). If they don't, you will have a lot of fun
re-owning stuff all the time, because deployments will use the symbolic name
ceph, which has different UIDs on the host and inside the container in your
case.
I would recommend removing this discrepancy as soon as possible:
1) Find out why there was a ceph user with UID different from 167 before
installation of ceph-common.
Did you create it by hand? Was UID 167 allocated already?
2) If you can safely change the GID and UID of ceph to 167, just do
groupmod+usermod with new GID and UID.
3) If 167 is used already by another service, you will have to map the UIDs
between host and container.
To prevent ansible from deploying dockerized ceph with mismatching user ID for
ceph, add these tasks to an appropriate part of your deployment (general host
preparation or so):
- name: "Create group 'ceph'."
group:
name: ceph
gid: 167
local: yes
state: present
system: yes
- name: "Create user 'ceph'."
user:
name: ceph
password: "!"
comment: "ceph-container daemons"
uid: 167
group: ceph
shell: "/sbin/nologin"
home: "/var/lib/ceph"
create_home: no
local: yes
state: present
system: yes
This should err if a group and user ceph already exist with IDs different from
167.
Best regards,

Turns out /var/lib/ceph was ceph.ceph and not 167.167, chowning it made things
work. I guess only monitor needs that permission, rgw,mgr,osd are all happy
without needing it to be 167.167.

We are trying to set up a new Nautilus cluster using ceph-ansible with
containers. We got things deployed, but I couldn't run `ceph s` on the host so
decided to `apt install ceph-common and installed the Luminous version from
Ubuntu 18.04. For some reason the docker container that was running the monitor
restarted and won't restart. I added the repo for Nautilus and upgraded
ceph-common, but the problem persists. The Manager and OSD docker containers
don't seem to be affected at all. I see this in the journal:
