Why it is worth attention

It brings k9s-like productivity to Ceph operations, streamlining common tasks like OSD management, pool creation, and PG scrubbing with a fast, safe, and transparent TUI.

Who it is for

  • Ceph administrators
  • SREs and DevOps engineers managing Ceph clusters
  • Developers contributing to Ceph tooling
  • Organizations with on-premise Ceph storage

Use cases

  • Monitoring cluster health and capacity at a glance
  • Performing OSD maintenance (mark in/out, reweight, destroy)
  • Managing pools (create, edit, delete)
  • Executing PG operations (scrub, deep-scrub, repair)

Strengths

  • Keyboard-driven navigation reduces reliance on memorizing ceph command flags
  • Every action previews the exact ceph command, promoting transparency and learning
  • Safe destructive actions with mandatory confirmation
  • Real-time live refresh of dashboard, OSDs, pools, and PGs

Considerations

  • Only runs natively on Linux (requires librados); macOS/Windows only via Docker or mock
  • Only tested against Ceph releases Reef, Squid, Tentacle (not older versions)
  • Still under active development; some features may be incomplete or lack package manager distribution
