block storage over provisioning

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

When a Ceph block device is created with a given size, does Ceph allocate all that space right away or is that allocated as the user starts storing the data?

I want to know if we can over provision the Ceph cluster. For example, if we have a cluster with 10G available space, am I allowed to create only 10,  1G volumes? Or can I over provision and assume that each volume is going to be used only up to 50% and allow creation of 20  1G volumes?

Thanks,
Shridhar
