Hi Kees,
Assuming 3 replicas and collocated journal each RBD write will trigger 6 SSD
writes (excluding FS overhead and occasional re-balance).
Intel has 4 tiers of Data center SATA SSD (other manufacturers may have fewer):
- S31xx: ~0.1 DWPD (counted on 3 years): Very read intensive
- S35xx: ~1 DWPD: Read intensive
- S36xx: ~3 DWPD: Mixed workloads
- S37xx: ~10 DWPD: Write intensive
(DWPD = Disk write per day)
For example a cluster of 90* 960GB S3520 has an write endurance of 26.25 PB, so
around 14 TB/day.
IMO the S3610 (maybe soon the S3620 :D) is a good enough middle of the road
option if you don’t know the write volume of the RBD backed VMs. Then after a
few months in production you can use the SMART data and re-evaluate.
I cannot highlight enough how important it is to monitor the SSD wear level.
Cheers,
Maxime

Hi Maxime,
Given your remark below, what kind of SATA SSD do you recommend for OSD
usage?
Thanks!
Regards,
Kees

out their endurance doesn’t make them suitable for OSDs in most cases. I can
only advise you to keep a close eye on the SMART status of the SSDs.
