Hi,
thanks all, still I would appreciate hints on a concrete procedure how
to migrate cephfs metadata to a SSD pool, the SSDs being on the same
hosts like to spinning disks.
This reference I read:
https://www.sebastien-han.fr/blog/2014/08/25/ceph-mix-sata-and-ssd-within-the-same-box/
Are there other alternatives to this suggested configuration?
I am kind of a little paranoid to start playing around with crush rules
in the running system.
Regards,
Mike

Wido, all,
can you point me to the "recent benchmarks" so I can have a look?
How do you define "performance"? I would not expect cephFS
throughput to change, but it is surprising to me that metadata on
SSD will have no measurable effect on latency.

operations like "ls", "stat", "find" would become faster, the bottleneck
is the slow osds which store file data.

No, as I said in my previous e-mail, recent benchmarks showed
that storing CephFS metadata on SSD does not improve performance.
It still might be good to do since it's not that much data thus
recovery will go quickly, but don't expect a CephFS performance
improvement.

I've never done migration of cephfs_metadata from
spindle disks to
ssds. But logically you could achieve this through 2
phases.
#1 Configure CRUSH rule including spindle disks
and ssds
#2 Configure CRUSH rule for just pointing to ssds
* This would cause massive data shuffling.
Not really, usually the CephFS metadata isn't that much
data.
Recent benchmarks (can't find them now) show that
storing CephFS metadata on SSD doesn't really improve
performance though.

Hi,
Happy New Year!
Can anyone point me to specific walkthrough /
howto instructions how to move
cephfs metadata to SSD in a running cluster?
How is crush to be modified step by step such
that the metadata migrate to
SSD?
Thanks and regards,
Mike
