[pve-devel] [PATCH pve-manager v2] fix #7011: ceph monitor: set ownership of monitor logs

[pve-devel] [PATCH pve-manager v2] fix #7011: ceph monitor: set ownership of monitor logs

[Dominik Rusovac]

Ownership of the ceph monitor log file is now set to ceph:ceph after the
creation of a new monitor and before the new monitor starts. Hence,
effective ceph monitor logging on freshly set up ceph clusters no longer
depends on the first upgrade of ceph-common.

For setups (still) affected by #7011 it is required that ownership of
the ceph monitor log file is set to ceph:ceph (either manually or due to
some ceph-common upgrade), followed by a monitor restart.

Re: [pve-devel] [PATCH pve-manager v2] fix #7011: ceph monitor: set ownership of monitor logs

[Dominik Rusovac]

Haven't added the notes due to omitting "--notes" in my "git-format-path" command, sorry. 
Notes:
changes since v1:
* only the concrete ceph monitor log file is being chown'ed, meaning:
* the whole log directory is no longer being chown'ed
* no more globbing involed
* command passed as array
v1: https://lore.proxmox.com/all/20251212130531.116019-1-d.rusovac@proxmox.com/ [https://lore.proxmox.com/all/20251212130531.116019-1-d.rusovac@proxmox.com/]
