Using device mapper with journal on separate partition

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



All,

 

I am trying to use ceph-deploy to create an OSD on a multipath device but put the journal partition on the SSD the system boots from.

I have created a partition on the SSD (/dev/sda5) but ceph-deploy does not seem to like it.

 

I am trying:

ceph-deploy osd create ceph01:/dev/mapper/mpathb:/dev/sda5

 

It runs through and ends with:

[INFO  ] Running command: ceph --cluster=ceph osd stat --format=json

[WARNIN] there is 1 OSD down

[WARNIN] there is 1 OSD out

 

 

So I try to activate it:

                ceph-deploy disk activate ceph-1-35a:/dev/mapper/mpathb1:/dev/sda5

 

But that gives me an error:

[WARNIN] 2016-04-01 13:07:55.519488 7fecdd044800 -1  ** ERROR: error creating empty object store in /var/lib/ceph/tmp/mnt.VTxcYn: (13) Permission denied

 

It works fine if I only specify the single multipath device.

It works fine if I point to a disk for the journal, but not a partition.

It seems ceph-deploy is not set up to use an existing partition on a separate disk for a journal?

 

Is there a way to get ceph-deploy to use an existing partition for a journal?
