Possible to "move" an OSD?

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

 



This is an edge case and probably not something that would be done in production, so I suspect the answer is “lol, no,” but here goes:

I have three nodes running Nautilus courtesy of Proxmox. One of them is a self-built Ryzen 5 3600 system, and the other two are salvaged i5 Skylake desktops that I have pressed into service as virtualization and storage nodes. I want to replace the i5 systems with machines that are identical to the Ryzen 5 system. What I want to know is whether it’s possible to just take the devices that are currently hosting the OSDs, together with the hard drive that is hosting Proxmox, move them into the new machine, power up and have everything working. I don’t *think* the device names should change. What does everything think about this possibly insane plan? (Yes, I will back up all my important data before trying this.)

Thanks,
J
