For the upcoming Luminous release (12.2.2), ceph-disk will be officially in 'deprecated' mode (bug fixes only). A large banner with deprecation information has been added, which will try to raise awareness. We are strongly suggesting using ceph-volume for new (and old) OSD deployments. The only current exceptions to this are encrypted OSDs and FreeBSD systems Encryption support is planned and will be coming soon to ceph-volume. A few items to consider: * ceph-disk is expected to be fully removed by the Mimic release * Existing OSDs are supported by ceph-volume. They can be "taken over" [0] * ceph-ansible already fully supports ceph-volume and will soon default to it * ceph-deploy support is planned and should be fully implemented soon [0] http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/ceph-volume/simple/ _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
