Context: the ceph project wants to reserve a UID/GID - being a distributed storage cluster, it's best if the UID/GIDs remain static across the whole cluster, and the most straightforward way to do this is to hardcode a UID/GID in a useradd/groupadd invocation in the rpm %pre script.
I'm not sure if that is supported by openSUSE, but there is also systemd-sysusers (see man sysusers.d or http://0pointer.net/blog/projects/stateless.html ) to create system users/groups.
systemd-sysusers is just an improved version of (%pre+useradd). It still cannot guarantee equal UIDs across all (or even just a handful of) systems. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
