It wasn't clear in my first post: OSDs are already split between both DCs, so having the MDS on either side has the same effect on MDS-OSD traffic. It appears that my current usage profile generates load on the MDS, but not that much on OSD-metadata. The public DC is just the one of the two that Booth gives its ticket to. > One possibility for helping your situation is to put NFS-Ganesha in > the public datacenter as a gateway to CephFS.

I'll keep it stupid-simple then, just use the cephfs client, and monitor the usage profile of things ;-) -- Nicolas Huillard _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
