-FAQs
-====
-
-Q: Aargh there's no authentication! Are you crazy?
-A: At present this module only serves read-only status information, and it is disabled by default. Administrators can make a decision
- at the point of enabling the module whether they want to limit access to the port, and/or put it behind an authenticating HTTP proxy
- such as Apache+digest auth.
- A motivated person could totally build in some authentication stuff though: that would probably only be worth the effort at the point
- that non-readonly features were added.
-
-Q: Aargh there's no SSL! Are you crazy?
-A: See the authentication question. You can always configure your own SSL gateway on top of this if you need it.
-
-Q: Why CherryPy?
-A: ceph-mgr is a pure CPython environment, which means that anything gevent based doesn't work (gevent relies on C-level hacks). CherryPy
- includes a web server based on standard python threads, making it a convenient choice. There are other web frameworks of course.
-
-Q: Does this use the `restful` module?
-A: No. This module loads everything it needs directly via the interfaces available to ceph-mgr modules, and sends it straight to your browser.
-
-Q: My browser says "connection refused"
-A: Check that you have a running ceph-mgr daemon. Look in the ceph-mgr log (/var/log/ceph/ceph-mgr...) for errors loading modules. Check
- that you have enabled the module (see "Enabling" above)
-
-Q: My log contains an error like "ImportError: No module named cherrypy"
-A: See "Dependencies" above. Make sure you installed a 3.x version of cherrypy, many distros have multiple cherrypy packages.
-
-Q: I want to add something to the UI, how do I do it?
-A: See HACKING.rst
