What problem does it solve?

Deploying Ceph storage across multiple Kubernetes nodes is complex and error-prone. This skill provides a reproducible, production-grade Rook Ceph deployment workflow, including operator installation and a multi-node cluster ready for production workloads.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Helm-based deployment of the Rook Ceph operator and a multi-node cluster with production settings (mon.count: 3, mgr.count: 2, replication size: 3, failure domain: host)
• High availability and scalable storage managed by Rook Ceph in Kubernetes
• Quick-start guidance for installing the operator, waiting for readiness, and deploying a cluster using a values file

Quick Start

Install the Rook Ceph operator and cluster using Helm and a values file:

• Add the Rook Helm repository helm repo add rook-release https://charts.rook.io/release
• Update repository helm repo update
• Install operator helm install --create-namespace --namespace rook-ceph rook-ceph rook-release/rook-ceph
• Wait for operator readiness kubectl -n rook-ceph wait --for=condition=ready pod -l app=rook-ceph-operator --timeout=300s
• Install cluster with values file helm install --namespace rook-ceph rook-ceph-cluster --set operatorNamespace=rook-ceph rook-release/rook-ceph-cluster -f cluster-values.yaml
