Documentation #48699
closedMDS client blocklisting vs. blacklisting confusion
0%
Description
I see a difference in the docs between the words "blacklist" and "blocklist" with regards to MDS clients. Up until Ceph Octopus there is only "blacklist" command:
cephadm:~ # ceph osd blacklist add clear ls rm
Is this going to be changed from Pacific onwards? This should probably be clarified in a note or something to avoid confusion.

@batrick I've been wondering the same. I'd be happy to harmonize the docs given insight about the terms in question; I don't know CephFS well enough to know offhand which is proper (or both?)

- Status changed from New to Resolved
"blacklist" is present in Octopus and in releases prior to Octopus.
"blocklist" is present in Pacific and in releases subsequent to Pacific.
Neha and I discussed this and agreed that the announcement in the newsletter from last month is sufficient to inform the community of this change.
I'm resolving this issue.
