Best practice for expanding Ceph cluster

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

 



Dear Ceph folks,

I am writing to ask for advice on best practice of expanding ceph cluster. We are running an 8-node Ceph cluster and RGW, and would like to add another 10 node, each of which have 10x 12TB HDD. The current 8-node has ca. 400TB user data.

I am wondering whether to add 10 nodes at one shot and let the cluster to rebalance, or divide into 5 steps, each of which add 2 nodes and rebalance step by step?  I do not know what would be the advantages or disadvantages with the one shot scheme vs 5 bataches of adding 2 nodes step-by-step.

Any suggestions, experience sharing or advice are highly appreciated. 

thanks a lot in advance,

Samuel
