Question if WAL/block.db partition will benefit us

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

 



Hi,
we run a larger octopus s3 cluster with only rotating disks.
1.3 PiB with 177 OSDs, some with a SSD block.db and some without.

We have a ton of spare 2TB disks and we just wondered if we can bring the
to good use.
For every 10 spinning disks we could add one 2TB SSD and we would create
two partitions per OSD (130GB for block.db and 20GB for block.wal). This
would leave some empty space on the SSD for waer leveling.

The question now is: would we benefit from this? Most of the data that is
written to the cluster is very large (50GB and above). This would take a
lot of work into restructuring the cluster and also two other clusters.

And does it make a different to have only a block.db partition or a
block.db and a block.wal partition?

Cheers
 Boris
