NAME

       ctdb_mutex_ceph_rados_helper - Ceph RADOS cluster mutex helper

DESCRIPTION

       ctdb_mutex_ceph_rados_helper can be used as a cluster 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):

           cluster 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.

       For informational purposes, ctdb_mutex_ceph_rados_helper will also register the cluster
       lock holder in Ceph Manager's service map.
