I am new to Kubernetes. I am in need of integrating rook and ceph, adding NFS as block storage. Does anyone have any working examples? I followed https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-ceph-cluster-within-kubernetes-using-rook this document and I am getting errors(stuck at container creating, stuck at pod initializing) while creating ceph cluster in rook on Kubernetes. Any help would be appreciated.

kubectl get pod -n rook-ceph

    You'll probably get more help if you subscribe to the [ceph-users mailing list](https://lists.ceph.io/hyperkitty/list/ceph-users@ceph.io/). And noone is able to help without more details about the failing steps and the actual error messages. – eblock Sep 24 '20 at 12:52
  • Could you please provide logs from failing pods? Please use [`kubectl describe`](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/generated/kubectl/kubectl-commands#describe) and add the output to your question, so we could see why the pods are in ContainerCreating status. – Jakub Sep 25 '20 at 05:39

Use kubectl describe pod <name> -n rook-ceph to see the list of events, it is on the bottom of the output. This will show where the pods get stuck.

It may be also the case that one of your nodes is in bad state, as it seems that some pod replicas are failing to start. You can confirm by running

kubectl get pod -o wide | grep -v Running

Possible all failing pods are running on the same node. If that is the case you can inspect the problematic node with

kubectl describe node [node]
