Quoting Denny Fuchs (linuxmail@xxxxxxxx): > > We have also a 2nd cluster which holds the VMs with also 128Gb Ram and 2 x > Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2650 v4 @ 2.20GHz. But with only system disks (ZFS > Raid1). Storage doesn't matter for MDS, as they won't use it to store ceph data (but instead use the (meta)data pool to store meta data). I would not colocate the MDS daemons with the OSDS, but instead create a couple of VMs (active / standby) and give them as much RAM as you possibly can. Gr.
