Hi, as most on the list here I also see the future of storage in ceph. I think it is a great system and overall design, and sage with the rest of inktank and the community are doing their best to make ceph great. Being a part-time developer myself I know how awesome new features are, and how great

Hi Wolfgang, Can you elaborate the issue for 1.5 with libvirt? Wonder if that will impact the usage with Grizzly. Did a quick compile for 1.5 with RBD support enabled, so far it seems to be ok for openstack with a few simple tests. But definitely want to be cautious if there is known integration

I believe that the async_flush fix got in after 1.4.1 release. Unless someone had backported the patch to 1.4.0, it is unlikely that 1.4.0 package would contain the fix. --weiguo > From: a...@alex.org.uk > Date: Wed, 29 May 2013 08:59:14 +0100 > To: wolfgang.hennerbich...@risc-software.at > CC:

Instead of using ext4 for the file system, you need to use a clustered file system on the RBD device. From: ceph-users-boun...@lists.ceph.com [mailto:ceph-users-boun...@lists.ceph.com] On Behalf Of Jon Sent: Wednesday, May 29, 2013 7:55 AM To: Igor Laskovy Cc: ceph-users Subject: Re: [ceph-users

Hello Bradley, Please excuse my ignorance, I am new to CEPH and what I thought was a good understanding of file systems has clearly been shown to be inadequate. Maybe I'm asking the question wrong because I keep getting the same answer. I guess I don't understand what a clustered filesystem is.

Hi Jon, it really sounds like you should really be using CephFS for this use case instead of RBD. RBD presents as a local block device, similar to iSCSI. If you wish to access that block device from multiple hosts, you have to run something on it that is aware of those multiple hosts or you'll ce

Jon; For all intents and purposes, an RBD device is treated by the system/OS as a physical disk, albeit attached via the network where multiple servers store the data (ceph cluster). Once the RBD device is created, one needs to format the device using any one of a number of file systems (ext4,
