Hi, What would be the proper way to add 100 new OSDs to a cluster? I have to add 100 new OSDs to our actual > 300 OSDs cluster, and I would like to know how you do it. Usually, we add them quite slowly. Our cluster is a pure SSD/NVMe one, and it can handle plenty of load, but for the sake of safety -it hosts thousands of VMs via RBD- we usually add them one by one, waiting for a long
time between adding each OSD. Obviously this leads to PLENTY of data movement, as each time the cluster geometry changes, data is migrated among all the OSDs. But with the kind of load we have, if we add several OSDs at the same time, some PGs can
get stuck for a while, while they peer to the new OSDs. Now that I have to add > 100 new OSDs I was wondering if somebody has some suggestions. Thanks! Xavier. |
