I see it's the undocumented "ceph.dir.layout.pool" Something like: setfattr -n ceph.dir.layout.pool -v mynewpool <DIR> On an empty dir.... should work. I'd like one directory to be more heavily mirrored so that a) objects are more likely to be on a less busy server b) availability increases (at the expense of size/write speed). -----Original Message----- From: Gregory Farnum [mailto:greg@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, September 27, 2013 11:14 AM To: Aronesty, Erik Cc: Aaron Ten Clay; Sage Weil; ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: CephFS Pool Specification?

(I googled ceph map directory to pool . and got this post) Nothing official at this point. Sébastien wrote a short blog about it earlier this year that will give you the basics: http://www.sebastien-han.fr/blog/2013/02/11/mount-a-specific-pool-with-cephfs/ But at this point it's easier to use the virtual xattrs at "ceph.dir.layout", as shown in this ticket: http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/4215 -Greg Software Engineer #42 @ http://inktank.com | http://ceph.com _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
