Hi Jerker,

Thanks for the reply.

The link you posted describes only object storage. I need information of raid levels implementation for block devices.


Thanks
Kumar

I would say the levels of redundancy could roughly be translated like this.

  RAID0          one replica (size=1)
  RAID1          two replicas (size=2)
  RAID10         two replicas (size=2)
  RAID5          erasure coding (erasure-code-m=1)
  RAID6          erasure coding (erasure-code-m=2)
  RAIDZ3         erasure coding (erasure-code-m=3)

Read more here:

http://ceph.com/docs/master/rados/operations/pools/

A seven disk RAID6 (4 data, 2 parity and 1 hot spare) would then be similar to a Ceph erasure coded pool on seven OSDs with erasure-code-k=4 and erasure-code-m=2.

Kind regards,
Jerker Nyberg.
