Re: Stupid question about ceph fs volume

I'm not sure if using EC as default data pool for cephfs is still discouraged as stated in the output when attempting to do that, the docs don't mention that (at least not in the link I sent in the last mail):

ceph:~ # ceph fs new cephfs cephfs_metadata cephfs_data
Error EINVAL: pool 'cephfs_data' (id '8') is an erasure-coded pool. Use of an EC pool for the default data pool is discouraged; see the online CephFS documentation for more information. Use --force to override.

ceph:~ # ceph fs new cephfs cephfs_metadata cephfs_data --force
new fs with metadata pool 6 and data pool 8

CC'ing Zac here to hopefully clear that up.

Zitat von "David C." <david.casier@xxxxxxxx>:

Albert,
Never used EC for (root) data pool.

Yes...I already try that with the label and works fine.

But I prefer to use «my» pools. Because I have ssd/hdd and want also try
«erasure coding» pool for the data.


I also need to set the pg_num and pgp_num (I know I can do that after the
creation).


So I manage to do ... half what I want...

In fact

  ceph fs volume create thing

will create two pools

  cephfs.thing.meta
  cephfs.thing.data

and if those pool already existe it will use them.

But that's only if the data are replicated no with erasure coding....(maybe
I forget something config on the pool).

Well I will currently continue my test with replicated data.

Yes, but I'm guessing the

  ceph fs volume

are the «future» so it would be super nice to add (at least) the option to
choose the couple of pool...

Ok. I will also try but...well...newbie ;-)

Anyway thanks.
