Re: Wiping object content on removal

Gregory,

the idea is to wipe object content optionally - when user requests for that.
Thus not every delete operation will suffer from that.

Hi Cephers.

Does Ceph have an ability to wipe object content during one's removal?
Surely one can do that manually from the client but I think that's
ineffective and not 100% secure.

If no - what's about adding such feature to Ceph?
   I can start working on that.
Wipe object content during removal of what? The OSD? Or are you
talking about secure erase of object data instead of unlinking files?
I meant secure object removal.

Yeah, I just don't see this happening. There aren't even exposed
primitives to do a secure erase on SSDs, are there? Plus turning a
delete operation into a full data overwrite....yuck.
