thought that using sysvinit was strange too, but I didn’t know what to expect… Wonder where that went off the rails? > On Jul 16, 2016, at 3:45 AM, Wido den Hollander wrote: > > >> Op 15 juli 2016 om 21:19 schreef Will Dennis : >> >> >> Hi all, >> >

[ceph-users] Questions about using existing HW for PoC cluster

Hi all, Kind of new to Ceph (have been using 10.2.11 on a 3-node Proxmox 4.x cluster [hyperconverged], works great!) and now I'm thinking of perhaps using it for a bigger data storage project at work, a PoC at first, but built as correctly as possible for performance and availability. I have th

The hope is to be able to provide scale-out storage, that will be performant enough to use as a primary fs-based data store for research data (right now we mount via NFS on our cluster nodes, may do that with Ceph or perhaps do native cephfs access from the cluster nodes.) Right now I’m still
