+==================================================
+ ceph-post-file -- post files for ceph developers
+==================================================
+
+.. program:: ceph-post-file
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+| **ceph-post-file** [-d *description] [-u *user*] *file or dir* ...
+
+
+Description
+===========
+
+**ceph-post-file** will upload files or directories to ceph.com for
+later analysis by Ceph developers.
+
+Each invocation uploads files or directories to a separate directory
+with a unique tag. That tag can be passed to a developer or
+referenced in a bug report (http://tracker.ceph.com/). Once the
+upload completes, the directory is marked non-readable and
+non-writeable to prevent access or modification by other users.
+
+Warning
+=======
+
+Basic measures are taken to make posted data be visible only to
+developers with access to ceph.com infrastructure. However, users
+should think twice and/or take appropriate precautions before
+posting potentially sensitive data (for example, logs or data
+directories that contain Ceph secrets).
+
+
+Options
+=======
+
+.. option:: -d *description*, --description *description*
+
+ Add a short description for the upload. This is a good opportunity
+ to reference a bug number. There is no default value.
+
+.. option:: -u *user*
+
+ Set the user metadata for the upload. This defaults to `whoami`@`hostname -f`.
+
+Examples
+========
+
+To upload a single log::
+
+ ceph-post-file /var/log/ceph/ceph-mon.`hostname`.log
+
+To upload several directories::
+
+ ceph-post-file -d 'mon data directories' /var/log/ceph/mon/*
+
+
+Availability
+============
+
+**ceph-post-file** is part of Ceph, a massively scalable, open-source, distributed storage system. Please refer to
+the Ceph documentation at http://ceph.com/docs for more information.
