Subject: Interested in ceph OSD encryption and key management
Date: Thu, 28 May 2015 16:23:25 +1200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1432787005.11787.33.camel@catalyst.net.nz> (raw)

David Disseldorp was good enough to point me at this proposal for ceph
OSD key management:
https://wiki.ceph.com/Planning/Blueprints/Infernalis/osd%3A_simple_ceph-mon_dm-crypt_key_management

I'm really interested in improving ceph on-disk encryption, and am
really glad folks are taking this beyond the local key storage we have
managed so far. 

So I can be part of the discussion, how do I get a login to the wiki?  I
would like to indicate my interest there.

Regarding the proposal:

In the default mode suggested in the wiki, my primary concern is that
I'm told, in a number of deployments, the monitor node is the same
server that also holds the OSDs, so we don't gain anything for those
cases over the /etc storage.

In those cases, the hooks suggested in the wiki will be key, as will be
having those configurable in ceph.conf, so ceph-deploy can just pass it
down to all the nodes as they are built, just as the other dmcrypt
options are.  

I would like to see three things hookable:
 - the command to obtain the key (on stdout)
 - to encrypt the key (so we can additionally pass it
via gpg, a HSM or remote encrypt/decrypt service)
 - to decrypt the key


Thanks,

Andrew Bartlett
