Re: Drive letters shuffled on reboot

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

 



Hello,

This is an interesting topic and would like to know a solution to this problem. Does that mean we should never use Dell storage as ceph storage device?  I have similar setup with Dell 4 iscsi LUNs attached to openstack controller and compute node in active-active situation.

As they were in active active 1 selected first 2 luns as osd on node1 and last 2 as osd on node 2.

Is it ok to have this configuration specially when and node will be down or considering live migration.

Regards
Gaurav Goyal

This isn't a Ceph specific question per se and you could probably keep
things from moving around by enforcing module loads in a particular order.

But that of course still wouldn't help if something else changed or a
drive totally failed.

So in the context of Ceph, it doesn't (shouldn't) care if the OSD (HDD)
changes names, especially since you did set it up with ceph-deploy.

And to avoid the journals getting jumbled up, do what everybody does
(outside of Ceph as well), use /dev/disk/by-id or uuid.

Like:
---
# ls -la /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-28/

 journal -> /dev/disk/by-id/wwn-0x55cd2e404b73d569-part3
