It's not sensitive at all -- at the worse case, your journals will expand during the burst period and shrink again during the idle period. > 2) how sensitive is rbd mirroring to falling behind on replication and > having to catch up? It's designed to be asynchronous replication w/ consistency so it doesn't matter to rbd-mirror if it's behind. In fact, you can even configure it to always be X hours behind if you want to have a window for avoiding accidents from propagating to the DR site. > > _______________________________________________ > ceph-users mailing list > ceph-users@lists.ceph.com > http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com > -- Jason _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@lists.ceph.com http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
