The sst files are files used by leveldb to store its data; you cannot remove them. Are you running on a very small VM? How much space are the files taking up in aggregate? Speaking generally, I think you should see something less than a GB worth of data there, but some versions of leveldb under some scenarios are known to misbehave and grow pretty large. -Greg Software Engineer #42 @ http://inktank.com | http://ceph.com On Tue, Aug 5, 2014 at 2:12 PM, Jimmy Lu <jlu at yahoo-inc.com> wrote: > Hello, > > I?ve been testing cephfs with 1 monitor.
