LVM support in Ceph Pacific

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

 



Hello everybody,

I have a misunderstanding about LVM configuration for OSD devices: 

In the pacific documentation cephadm/install (and it was already written in octopus documentation in section DEPLOY OSDS), it is written : 
“The device must not have any LVM state”
(https://docs.ceph.com/en/pacific/cephadm/services/osd/#listing-storage-devices)

whereas there are lots of reference to LVM configuration in other sections, such as in release notes : Pacific — Ceph Documentation or in ceph-volume — Ceph Documentation :
"NEW DEPLOYMENTS" (https://docs.ceph.com/en/pacific/ceph-volume/index.html#new-deployments)
For new deployments, LVM is recommended, it can use any logical volume as input for data OSDs, or it can setup a minimal/naive logical volume from a device

So I’m not sure to understand and have two questions: 

1/ Is it possible or not to deploy a Ceph Pacific configuration upon a LVM configuration for OSDs or is it not supported or is it just a problem linked to the use of ceph-adm instead of ceph-ansible ? 
2/ Is it possible to migrate a Ceph Octopus configuration installed (thks to ceph-ansible) upon LVM configuration for OSDs towards a Ceph Pacific configuration without changing anything around LVM configuration ?

Thanks

Regards
