about what this means in terms of data availability and even
utilization of your storage. :)
We also will create global pool for Cinder, the IOPS of global pool will be betther than local pool.
The benefit of local pool is reducing the network traffic between servers and Improving the management of storage. We use one same Ceph Gluster for Nova,Cinder,Glance, and create different pools(and diffenrent rules) for them. Maybe it need more testing :)
We love contributions to Ceph, and this is an obvious hole in our

atomic CLI-based CRUSH manipulation which a fix would be welcome for.
Please be aware that there was a significant overhaul to the way these
commands are processed internally between Cuttlefish and
Dumpling-to-be that you'll need to deal with if you want to cross that
boundary. I also recommend looking carefully at how we do the
individual pool changes and how we handle whole-map injection to make
sure the interface you use and the places you do data extraction makes
sense. :)
