These guys are great. [ https://croit.io/ | https://croit.io/ ] From: "Schweiss, Chip" <chip@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "ceph-users" <ceph-users@xxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, February 16, 2021 9:42:24 AM Subject: SUSE POC - Dead in the water For the past several months I had been building a sizable Ceph cluster that will be up to 10PB with between 20 and 40 OSD servers this year. A few weeks ago I was informed that SUSE is shutting down SES and will no longer be selling it. We haven't licensed our proof of concept cluster that is currently at 14 OSD nodes, but it looks like SUSE is not going to be the answer here. I'm seeking recommendations for consulting help on this project since SUSE has let me down. I have Ceph installed and operating, however, I've been struggling with getting the pool configured properly for CephFS and getting very poor performance. The OSD servers have TLC NVMe for DB, and Optane NVMe for WAL, so I should be seeing decent performance with the current cluster. I'm not opposed to completely switching OS distributions. Ceph on SUSE was our first SUSE installation. Almost everything else we run is on CentOS, but that may change thanks to IBM cannibalizing CentOS. Please reach out to me if you can recommend someone to sell us consulting hours and/or a support contract. -Chip Schweiss chip.schweiss@xxxxxxxxx Washington University School of Medicine _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
