Re: How to set up bluestore manually?

Hi!

 

Thanks for the hint, but I get this error:

 

[ceph_deploy][ERROR ] ConfigError: Cannot load config: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'ceph.conf'; has `ceph-deploy new` been run in this directory?

 

Obviously, ceph-deploy only works if the cluster has been managed with ceph-deply all along (and I won’t risk messing with my cluster by attempting to “retrofit” ceph-deply to it)…

I’ll setup a single VM cluster to squeeze out the necessary commands and check back…

 

Regards,

 

Martin

Hi!

 

I’d like to set up new OSDs with bluestore: the real data (“block”) on a spinning disk, and DB+WAL on a SSD partition.

 

But I do not use ceph-deploy, and never used ceph-disk (I set up the filestore OSDs manually).

Google tells me that ceph-disk does not (yet) support splitting the components across multiple block devices, I also had no luck while attempting it anyways. (using Ceph 12.1 RC1)

 

why not give ceph-deploy a chance, It has options to specify for db and wal in command line. you dont have to worry about what options to pass to ceph-disk as it encapsulates that

ex: ceph-deploy osd create --bluestore --block-wal /dev/nvme0n1 --block-db /dev/nvme0n1 p30:sdb

 

 

I just can’t find documentation on how to set up a bluestore OSD manually:

 

  • How do I “prepare” the block, block.wal and block.db blockdevices? Just directing ceph-osd to the block devices via ceph.conf does not seem to be enough.
  • Do bluestore OSDs still use/need a separate journal file/device? Or ist that replaced by the WAL?

 

http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/ also has not very much information on using bluestore, is this documentation deprecated?

 

The document has fallen behind for manual deployment and ceph-deploy usage for bluestore as well, but if you use the above command, it will clearly throw out what it is doing and how ceph-disk is being called, those

are essentially manual steps that should go in document. I think we have a tracker for update which is pending for sometime.

 

 

Thanks for any hints,

 

Martin
