Yes that sounds about right, but this will only be for optional promotions (ie reads that meet the recency/hitset settings). If you are doing any writes, they will force the object to be promoted as you can't directly write to an EC pool. And also don't forget that once the cache pool is full, it will start evicting/flushing cold objects for every new object that gets promoted into it. Few questions 1. What promotion rates are you seeing? 2. How are you measuring the promotion rate just out of interest? 3. Can you confirm that the OSD is picking up that setting correctly by running something like (sudo ceph --admin-daemon /var/run/ceph/ceph-osd.0.asok config show | grep promote)? > > Thanks, > > Peter > > On Tue, May 10, 2016 at 3:48 PM, Nick Fisk <nick@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: ceph-users [mailto:ceph-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf > Of > > Peter Kerdisle > > Sent: 10 May 2016 14:37 > > Cc: ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > Subject: Re: Erasure pool performance expectations > > > > To answer my own question it seems that you can change settings on the > fly > > using > > > > ceph tell osd.* injectargs '--osd_tier_promote_max_bytes_sec 5242880' > > osd.0: osd_tier_promote_max_bytes_sec = '5242880' (unchangeable) > > > > However the response seems to imply I can't change this setting.
