Hi Cedric,
That's what I thought - the access method shouldn't make a difference.
No, no lvs details at all - I mean, yes, the osds show up with the lvs
command on the ceph node(s), but not on the individual pools/images (on
the ceph node or the client) - this is, of course, that I'm doing this
right (and there's no guarantee of that).
To clarify: entering `lvs` on the client (which has the rbd image
"attached" as /dev/rbd0) returns nothing, and `lvs` on any of the ceph
nodes only returns the data for each OSD/HDD.
Full disclosure (as I should have done in the first post): the
pool/image was/is used as block device for oVirt VM disk images - but as
far as I'm aware this should not be the cause of this issue (because we
also use glusterfs and we've got similar VM disk images on gluster
drives/bricks and the VM images show up as "simple" files (yes, I'm
simplifying things a bit with that last statement)

Hello,
Data on a volume should be the same independently on how they are
being accessed.
I would think the volume was previously initialized with an LVM layer,
did "lvs" shows any logical volume on the system ?

Hi All,
All of this is using the latest version of RL and Ceph Reef
I've got an existing RBD Image (with data on it - not "critical"
as I've
got a back up, but its rather large so I was hoping to avoid the
restore
scenario).
The RBD Image used to be server out via an (Ceph) iSCSI Gateway,
but we
are now looking to use plain old kernal module.
The RBD Image has been RBD Mapped to the client's /dev/rbd0 location.
So now I'm trying a straight `mount /dev/rbd0 /mount/old_image/`
as a test
What I'm getting back is `mount: /mount/old_image/: unknown
filesystem
type 'LVM2_member'.`
All my Google Foo is telling me that to solve this issue I need to
reformat the image with a new file system - which would mean "losing"
the data.
So my question is: How can I get to this data using rbd kernal
modules
(the iSCSI Gateway is no longer available, so not an option), or am I
stuck with the restore option?
Or is there something I'm missing (which would not surprise me in the
least)? :-)
Thanks in advance (as always, you guys and gals are really, really
helpful)
Cheers
