Out of curiosity, I tried setting mon_rocksdb_options via ceph.conf. This didn't work either: ceph.conf gets overridden at monitor start, the resulting ceph.conf inside the monitor container doesn't have mon_rocksdb_options, the monitor starts with no RocksDB compression. I would appreciate it if someone from the Ceph team could please chip in and suggest a working way to enable RocksDB compression in Ceph monitors. /Z On Sat, 14 Oct 2023 at 19:16, Zakhar Kirpichenko <zakhar@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Thanks for your response, Josh.
