ceph-disk: implement lockbox key management
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Instead of storing the dmcrypt keys in the /etc/ceph/dmcrypt-keys
directory, they are stored in the monitor. If a machine with
OSDs created with ceph-disk prepare --dmcrypt is lost, it does
not contain the key that would allow to decrypt their content.

The dmcrypt key is retrieved from the monitor using a different keyring
for each OSD. It is stored in a small partition called the lockbox. At
boot time the lockbox is mounted

    /var/lib/ceph/osd-lockbox/$uuid

and used when the $uuid partition is detected by udev to map it with
cryptsetup.

The OSDs that were prepared prior to the lockbox implementation are
supported by looking up the key found in /etc/ceph/dmcrypt-keys before
looking in /var/lib/ceph/osd-lockbox/$uuid.
