Hello ceph-users, ceph-devel, Nice to meet you in the community! Today I tried to deploy a Ceph cluster to play around with the API, and during the deployment, i have a couple of questions which may need you help: 1) How many hosts do I need if I want to deploy a cluster with RadosGW (so that I can try with the S3 API)? Is it 3 OSD + 1 Mon + 1 GW = 5 hosts on minimum? 2) I have a list of hardwares, however, my host only have 1 disk with two partitions, one for boot and another for LVM members, is it possible to deploy an OSD on such hardware (e.g. make a partition with ext4)? Or I will need another disk to do so? -bash-4.1$ ceph-deploy disk list myserver.com [ceph_deploy.osd][INFO ] Distro info: RedHatEnterpriseServer 6.3 Santiago [ceph_deploy.osd][DEBUG ] Listing disks on myserver.com...
