Re: how to upgrade CEPH journal?

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

 



Please bear in mind that unless you've got a very good reason for separating the WAL/DB into two partitions (i.e. you are testing/debugging and want to observe their behaviour separately or they're actually going to go on different devices which have different speeds) you should probably stick to using one large partition and specifying block.db only, the WAL will automatically be included with the DB.

Personally, I found specifying these options in the config overly fiddly; if you manually partition your DB device with gdisk or whatever, and then specify the partitions as arguments, ceph-disk will just use that entire partition regardless of what other size settings are configured.

ceph-disk prepare --bluestore /dev/sda --block.db /dev/disk/by-partuuid/[UUID STRING]

(you should refer to the partition by UUID, rather than device letter, because ceph-disk will just symlink to the provided argument, and you cannot guarantee that device letters will be consistent between reboots, but you can be pretty dang sure the UUID will not change or collide)
