Chapter 1. Ceph RESTful API

As a storage administrator, you can use the Ceph RESTful API, or simply the Ceph API, provided by the Red Hat Ceph Storage Dashboard to interact with the Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster. You can display information about the Ceph Monitors and OSDs, along with their respective configuration options. You can even create or edit Ceph pools.

The Ceph API uses the following standards:

HTTP 1.1
JSON
MIME and HTTP Content Negotiation
JWT

These standards are OpenAPI 3.0 compliant, regulating the API syntax, semantics, content encoding, versioning, authentication, and authorization.

Prerequisites

A healthy running Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
Access to the node running the Ceph Manager.

1.1. Versioning for the Ceph API

A main goal for the Ceph RESTful API, is to provide a stable interface. To achieve a stable interface, the Ceph API is built on the following principles:

A mandatory explicit default version for all endpoints to avoid implicit defaults.
Fine-grain change control per-endpoint.
- The expected version from a specific endpoint is stated in the HTTP header.
  Syntax
```
Accept: application/vnd.ceph.api.vMAJOR.MINOR+json
```
  Example
```
Accept: application/vnd.ceph.api.v1.0+json
```
  If the current Ceph API server is not able to address that specific version, a 415 - Unsupported Media Type response will be returned.
Using semantic versioning.
- Major changes are backwards incompatible. Changes might result in non-additive changes to the request, and to the response formats for a specific endpoint.
- Minor changes are backwards and forwards compatible. Changes consist of additive changes to the request or response formats for a specific endpoint.

1.2. Authentication and authorization for the Ceph API

Access to the Ceph RESTful API goes through two checkpoints. The first is authenticating that the request is done on the behalf of a valid, and existing user. Secondly, is authorizing the previously authenticated user can do a specific action, such as creating, reading, updating, or deleting, on the target end point.

Before users start using the Ceph API, they need a valid JSON Web Token (JWT). The /api/auth endpoint allows you to retrieve this token.

Example

[root@mon ~]# curl -X POST "https://example.com:8443/api/auth" \
  -H  "Accept: application/vnd.ceph.api.v1.0+json" \
  -H  "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"username": user1, "password": password1}'

This token must be used together with every API request by placing it within the Authorization HTTP header.

Syntax

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer TOKEN" ...

Additional Resources

See the Ceph user management chapter in the Red Hat Ceph Storage Administration Guide for more details.

1.3. Enabling and Securing the Ceph API module

The Red Hat Ceph Storage Dashboard module offers the RESTful API access to the storage cluster over an SSL-secured connection.

Important

If disabling SSL, then user names and passwords are sent unencrypted to the Red Hat Ceph Storage Dashboard.

Prerequisites

Root-level access to a Ceph Monitor node.
Ensure that you have at least one ceph-mgr daemon active.
If you use a firewall, ensure that TCP port 8443, for SSL, and TCP port 8080, without SSL, are open on the node with the active ceph-mgr daemon.

Procedure

Log into the Cephadm shell:
Example
```
root@host01 ~]# cephadm shell
```

Enable the RESTful plug-in:

[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph mgr module enable dashboard

Configure an SSL certificate.
1. If your organization’s certificate authority (CA) provides a certificate, then set using the certificate files:
  Syntax
```
ceph dashboard set-ssl-certificate HOST_NAME -i CERT_FILE
ceph dashboard set-ssl-certificate-key HOST_NAME -i KEY_FILE
```
  Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph dashboard set-ssl-certificate -i dashboard.crt
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph dashboard set-ssl-certificate-key -i dashboard.key
```
  If you want to set unique node-based certificates, then add a HOST_NAME to the commands:
  Example
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph dashboard set-ssl-certificate host01 -i dashboard.crt
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph dashboard set-ssl-certificate-key host01 -i dashboard.key
```
2. Alternatively, you can generate a self-signed certificate. However, using a self-signed certificate does not provide full security benefits of the HTTPS protocol:
```
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph dashboard create-self-signed-cert
```
  Warning
  Most modern web browsers will complain about self-signed certificates, which require you to confirm before establishing a secure connection.

Create a user, set the password, and set the role:

Syntax

echo -n "PASSWORD" > PATH_TO_FILE/PASSWORD_FILE
ceph dashboard ac-user-create USER_NAME -i PASSWORD_FILE ROLE

Example

[ceph: root@host01 /]# echo -n "p@ssw0rd" > /root/dash-password.txt
[ceph: root@host01 /]# ceph dashboard ac-user-create user1 -i /root/dash-password.txt administrator

This example creates a user named user1 with the administrator role.

Connect to the RESTful plug-in web page. Open a web browser and enter the following URL:
Syntax
```
https://HOST_NAME:8443
```
Example
```
https://host01:8443
```
If you used a self-signed certificate, confirm a security exception.

Additional Resources

The https://HOST_NAME:8443/doc page, where HOST_NAME is the IP address or name of the node with the running ceph-mgr instance.

1.4.2.2. How Can I Change the OSD State?

This section describes how to use the RESTful plug-in to change the state of an OSD.

The `curl` Command

On the command line, use:

echo -En '{"STATE": VALUE}' | curl --request PATCH --data @- --silent --user USER 'https://CEPH_MANAGER:8080/api/osd/ID'

Replace:

CEPH_MANAGER with the IP address or short host name of the node with the active ceph-mgr instance
ID with the ID of the OSD listed in the osd field

Enter the user’s password when prompted.

If you used a self-signed certificate, use the --insecure option:

echo -En '{"STATE": VALUE}' | curl --request PATCH --data @- --silent --insecure --user USER 'https://CEPH_MANAGER:8080/api/osd/ID'

Python

In the Python interpreter, enter:

$ python

This section describes how to use the Ceph API to initialize scrubbing or deep scrubbing on an OSD, create a pool or remove data from a pool, remove requests, or create a request.

1.4.3.1. How Can I Run a Scheduled Process on an OSD?

This section describes how to use the RESTful API to run scheduled processes, such as scrubbing or deep scrubbing, on an OSD.

The `curl` Command

On the command line, use:

echo -En '{"command": "COMMAND"}' | curl --request POST --data @- --silent --user USER 'https://CEPH_MANAGER:8080/api/osd/ID/command'
