Re: OSD capacity variance ?

Hello,

As far as I am correct you should weight the OSD's as per their capacity in CRUSH map.


Weighting Bucket Items

Ceph expresses bucket weights as doubles, which allows for fine weighting. A weight is the relative difference between device capacities. We recommend using 1.00 as the relative weight for a 1TB storage device. In such a scenario, a weight of 0.5 would represent approximately 500GB, and a weight of 3.00 would represent approximately 3TB. Higher level buckets have a weight that is the sum total of the leaf items aggregated by the bucket.

Hi All,

I am developing a custom disk storage backend for the Bacula backup
system, and am in the process of setting up a trial Ceph system,
intending to use a direct interface to RADOS.

I have a variety of 1Tb, 250Mb and 160Mb disk drives that I would like
to use, but it is not [as yet] obvious as to whether having differences
in capacity at different OSDs matters.

Can anyone comment, or point me in the right direction on
docs.ceph.com ?

Thanks,

Howard
