Re: Erasure Coding Pools and PG calculation - documentation

I guess my questions are more centered around k+m and PG calculations.

As we were starting to build and test our EC pools with our infrastructure we were trying to figure out what our calculations needed to be starting with 3 OSD hosts with 12 x 10 TB OSDs a piece.  The nodes have the ability to expand to 24 drives a piece and we hope to eventually get to around a 1PB cluster after we add some more hosts.  Initially we hoped to be able to do a k=10 m=2 on the pool but I am not sure that is going to be feasible.  We’d like to set up the failure domain so that we would be able to lose an entire host without losing the cluster.  At this point I’m not sure that’s possible without bringing in more hosts.

Thanks for the help!

    I might be wrong, but from memory I think you can use
    http://ceph.com/pgcalc/ and use k+m for the size
