Summary : Python modules for Ceph iSCSI gateway configuration management
Description :
Python package providing the modules used to handle the configuration of an
iSCSI gateway, backed by Ceph RBD. The RPM installs configuration management
logic (ceph_iscsi_config modules), an rbd-target-gw systemd service, and
a CLI-based management tool 'gwcli', replacing the 'targetcli' tool.
The configuration management modules may be are consumed by custom Ansible
playbooks and the rbd-target-gw daemon.
The rbd-target-gw service is responsible for startup and shutdown actions,
replacing the 'target' service used in standalone LIO implementations.
In addition, rbd-target-gw also provides a REST API utilized by the Ceph
dashboard and gwcli tool, and a prometheus exporter for gateway LIO
performance statistics, supporting monitoring and visualisation tools like
Grafana.
