Huhhh... Its unfortunate that every google search i did for turning off rbd cache, specified "put it in the [client] section". Doh. Maybe this would make a good candidate to update the ceph rbd docs? Speaking of which.. what is the *exact* syntax for that command please? None of the below work: rbd config global set rbd_cache false rbd config global set rbd cache false rbd config global set conf_rbd_cache false rbd config global set rbd cache false rbd config global set global cache false and the error messages are not helpful. for example, # rbd config global set cache false rbd: invalid config entity: cache (must be global, client or client.<id>) ??? I already specified global?? but then # rbd config global set global cache false rbd: not rbd option: cache Very frustrating. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jason Dillaman" <jdillama@xxxxxxxxxx> To: "Eugen Block" <eblock@xxxxxx> Cc: "ceph-users" <ceph-users@xxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2020 5:09:17 AM Subject: Re: bug? cant turn off rbd cache? If you want to change global (librbd) settings, please use "rbd config global set ..." (which is just a wrapper around "ceph config set global ..."). The conf files only apply to the single host where they exist. _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
