Subject: Multiple named clusters on same nodes
Date: Wed, 23 May 2012 11:00:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201205231100.28327.a.ott@m-privacy.de> (raw)
Hello all!
We would like to have two independent clusters on the same cluster nodes,
specially one for user home directories (called homeuser) and one for backups
(backup). The reason is that in case the homeuser cephfs breaks (like it has
done several times in our tests), we still have independent storage of the
backups without the need of seperate server nodes.
So I started experimenting with the new "cluster" variable, but it does not
seem to be well supported so far. mkcephfs does not even know about it and
always uses "ceph" as cluster name. Setting a value for "cluster" in global
section of ceph.conf (homeuser.conf, backup.conf, ...) does not work, it is
not even used in the same config file, instead it has the fixed value "ceph".
My questions:
1) Has someone here ever tried such a setup?
2) Is there an official (documented) way to at least setup ceph clusters with
individual cluster names?
3) Are there plans to support cluster names in mkcephfs?
