Hi Dave Did you say iscsi only? The tracker issue does not say though. I am on giant, with both client and ceph on RHEL 7 and seems to work ok, unless I am missing something here. RBD on baremetal with kmod-rbd and caching disabled.

-----Original Message----- Testing without the cache tiering is the next test I want to do when I have time.. When it's hanging, there is no activity at all on the cluster. Nothing in "ceph -w", nothing in "ceph osd pool stats". I'll provide an update when I have a chance to test without tiering.
