Mounting the File System to the Clients

Log in to any client node and check the key used for the client node to access the Ceph cluster.
1
cat /etc/ceph/ceph.client.admin.keyring
You only need to run the command once. The keys for server nodes and client nodes are the same.
Create a file system mount point on each client node.
1
mkdir /mnt/cephfs
Run the following command on each client node:
1
mount -t ceph 192.168.3.166:6789,192.168.3.167:6789,192.168.3.168:6789:/ /mnt/cephfs -o name=admin,secret=Key_queried_in_step_1,sync
The default MON port number is 6789. The -o parameter specifies the user name and password for logging in to the cluster.
Check whether the file system is successfully mounted to each client node and whether the file system type is ceph.
1
stat -f /mnt/cephfs
For details about the CephFS, see the description in the Ceph open source community.
