Hi Christian, Thank you, I know what I am asking isn't a good idea... I am just trying to avoid waiting for all three nodes before I began virtualizing our infrastructure. Again thanks for the responses! Cheers, Mike > On May 14, 2016, at 9:56 AM, Christian Balzer wrote: > > On Sat, 14 May

[ceph-users] Starting a cluster with one OSD node

2016-05-13 Thread Mike Jacobacci
Hello, I have a quick and probably dumb question… We would like to use Ceph for our storage, I was thinking of a cluster with 3 Monitor and OSD nodes. I was wondering if it was a bad idea to start a Ceph cluster with just one OSD node (10 OSDs, 2 SSDs), then add more nodes as our budget allows
