Re: Migrating data into a newer ceph instance

[Luis Periquito <periquito@xxxxxxxxx>]

I Would say the easiest way would be to leverage all the self-healing of ceph: add the new nodes to the old cluster, allow or force all the data to migrate between nodes, and then remove the old ones out.

Well to be fair you could probably just install radosgw on another node and use it as your gateway without the need to even create a new OSD node...

Or was there a reason to create a new cluster? I can tell you that one of the clusters I have has been around since bobtail, and now it's hammer...

Hi,

 

We have been running Ceph/Radosgw version 0.80.7 (Giant) and stored quite some amount of data in it. We are only using ceph as an object store via radosgw. Last week cheph-radosgw daemon suddenly refused to start (with logs only showing “initialization timeout” error on Centos 7).  This triggers me to install a newer instance --- Ceph/Radosgw version 0.94.2 (Hammer). The new instance has a different set of key rings by default. The next step is to have all the data migrated. Does anyone know how to get the existing data out of the old ceph  cluster (Giant) and into the new instance (Hammer)? Please note that in the old three-node cluster ceph osd is still running but radosgw is not. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
