Hi team, I'm planning to invest in hardware for a PoC and I would like your
feedback before the purchase:
The goal is to deploy a *16TB* storage cluster, with *3 replicas* thus *3
nodes*.
System configuration: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cfDpDx ($400 USD per
node)
Some notes about the configuration:
- 4-core processor for 4 OSD daemons
- 8GB RAM for the first 4TB of storage, that will increase to 16GB of
RAM when 16TB of storage.
- Motherboard:
- 4 x SATA 6 Gb/s (one per each OSD disk)
- 2 x PCI-E x1 Slots (1 will be used for an additional Gigabit
Ethernet)
- 1 x M.2 Slots for the host OS
- Ram can increase up-to 32 GB, and another SATA 6b/s controller can
be added on PCI-E x1 for growth up to *32TB*
As noted, the plan is to deploy nodes with *4TB* and gradually add *12TB* as
needed, memory also should be increased to *16GB* after *8TB* threshold.
Edit
Questions to validate before the purchase
1. Does the hardware components make sense for the *16TB* growth projection?
2. Is it easy to gradually add more capacity to each node (*4TB* each time
per node)?
Thanks for your support!
You may find that having only one disk per node, will make the storage
quite slow.
I think you're low on RAM to use bluestore, specially when adding new
disks, please check:
https://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/start/hardware-recommendations/
It is easy to add additional disks, yes.
You may also want to try some solution for easier deployment for such a
small cluster, I can recommend Proxmox VE (https://www.proxmox.com) but
there are others.
Cheers and good luck
Eneko
