Simple indeed. Thanks!

Understood. It was my misconception anyway, since you have to specify the ceph version upon using pveceph —install. So apt-get upgrade would not force hammer on anyone automatically. ;-)

While we are at it, the pve-manager package could be updated to allow hammer, though?

(Note: I was unable to clone the pveceph related stuff from https://git.proxmox.com <https://git.proxmox.com/> so I was only able to diff against the versions installed on my system… - pointers welcome!)

The only hints to ceph versions I found were in pveceph manpage and in pveceph itself (where firefly is the current default).
If there is nothing else I have missed, both could then be brought up to date:

diff /usr/share/man/man1/pveceph.1.orig /usr/share/man/man1/pveceph.1
297c297
< \&   \-version   (dumpling | emperor | firefly | giant)
---
> \&   \-version   (dumpling | emperor | firefly | giant | hammer)

and

diff /usr/bin/pveceph.orig /usr/bin/pveceph
90c90
< 		enum => ['dumpling', 'emperor', 'firefly', 'giant'],
---
> 		enum => ['dumpling', 'emperor', 'firefly', 'giant', 'hammer'],
