Hi Fulvio,

Hallo, apologies for my (silly) questions, I did try to find some doc on rbd-mirror but was unable to, apart from a number of pages explaining how to install it.

My environment is CenOS7 and Ceph 10.2.5.

Can anyone help me understand a few minor things:

 - is there a cleaner way to configure the user which will be used for
   rbd-mirror, other than editing the ExecStart in file /usr/lib/systemd/system/ceph-rbd-mirror@.service ?
   For example some line in ceph.conf... looks like the username
   defaults to the cluster name, am I right?

It should just be "ceph", no matter what the cluster name is, if I read the code correctly.

 - is it possible to throttle mirroring? Sure, it's a crazy thing to do
   for "cinder" pools, but may make sense for slowly changing ones, like
   a "glance" pool.

The rbd core team is working on this. Jason, right?

 - is it possible to set per-pool default features? I read about
    "rbd default features = ###"
   but this is a global setting. (Ok, I can still restrict pools to be
   mirrored with "ceph auth" for the user doing mirroring)

"per-pool default features" sounds like a reasonable feature request.

About the "ceph auth" for mirroring, I am working on a rbd acl design,
will consider pool-level, namespace-level and image-level. Then I think
we can do a permission check on this.

Thanx
Yang


  Thanks!
