Kurt, When you had OS and osd journals co-located, how many osd journals were on the SSD containing the OS? You mention you now use a 5:1 ratio. Was the ratio something like 11:1 before (one SSD for OS plus 11 osd journals to 11 OSDs in a 12-disk chassis)? Also, what throughput per drive w

Hi, Here my scenario : I will have a small cluster (4 nodes) with 4 (4 TB) OSD's per node. I will have OS installed on two SSD in raid 1 configuration. Is one of you have successfully and efficiently a Ceph cluster that is built with Journal on a separate partition on the OS SSD's? I know
