Nothing like this exists right now and there isn't really infrastructure to let you do so as a user — you'd need to build up and maintain your own searchable index. We've discussed (in a blue-sky sense) this and similar problems and have ideas for adding it in via PG classes and metadata that's organized by PG instead of object. A sufficiently-motivated developer could work on design and implementation, but it's a serious project that would take some time and intimate knowledge of the Ceph internals. -Greg _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@lists.ceph.com http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
