Later today I will try both the HP testing using multiple cciss devices
for
my OSDs and separately testing manually specifying the dm devices
on my external FC and iSCSI storage and will let you know how both
tests turn out.
Thanks again,
Eric
Tomorrow I will bring up a HP system that has multiple cciss disks
installed
and see if I can use some of them as OSD devices
As you can see it does not currently handle multipath in a seamless
way.
You can always set the multipath up yourself, however, partition as
you
see fit, and then specify the device names yourself, e.g.
>ceph-deploy osd create HOST:/dev/dm/foo:/dev/dm/bar
I believe the gap currently with this arrangement is that the volumes
won't be automatically mounted, in which case you'd need to add
/etc/fstab
entries do to that yourself.
