Thanks Christian for doing an awesome job, you answered some of the questions better than I personally could have ;) On Thu, May 17, 2012 at 11:08 PM, Alexandre DERUMIER <aderumier@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > About network, does the rados protocol support some kind of multipathing ? Or does I need to use bonding/lacp ? Bonding is almost always good if you have the switch ports & bandwidth to spare. Even without bonding, one of the tricks RADOS does is that each chunk of the RBD image is stored on a different OSD, so your hypervisor will actually talk to even thousands of OSDs when the vm accesses the disk. This way, the network link of any individual storage node is less likely to become a performance bottleneck for the vm. > I have submited the contact form on Inktank website, as we would like to pay for support/expertise to build this cluster, but didn't have response yet.
