Re: Help Configuring Replication

Hi,

this doesn't sound like a good idea: two hosts is usually a poor configuration for Ceph.
Also, fewer disks on more servers is typically better than lots of disks in few servers.

But to answer your question: you could use a crush rule like this:

min_size 4
max_size 4
step take default
step choose firstn 2 type host
step choose firstn 2 type osd
step emit

And then create a pool with 4/2 and assign this crush rule to it.


See http://docs.ceph.com/docs/jewel/rados/operations/crush-map/

I'm starting to get a small Ceph cluster running. I'm to the point where I've created a pool, and stored some test data in it, but I'm having trouble configuring the level of replication that I want.

The goal is to have two OSD host nodes, each with 20 OSDs. The target replication will be:

osd_pool_default_size = 4
osd_pool_default_min_size = 2

That is, I want two copies on each host, allowing for OSD failures or host failures without data loss.

How to best achieve this replication? Is this strictly a CRUSH map rule, or can it be done with the cluster conf? Pointers or examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
