you can use crushtool export crush map,then modify the rule in crush map 
,you can create new rules.
http://ceph.com/docs/master/rados/operations/crush-map/?highlight=crush%20map

you can use #ceph osd pool set {pool name} {key} {value}
the key is crush_ruleset,value is the rule num.

you can see that in Block Device Command in ceph document.
http://ceph.com/docs/master/rbd/rados-rbd-cmds/

You decide,mount command is the same to linux mount command.

location-aware file placement in Ceph

[Zhongliang Zhao]

Dear all,

As new to ceph, may I ask in the crush algorithm, is there a way to 
configure where the file to be stored, not randomly.
My requirement is to place the files that within the same 
location(within a geographic area), into the same OSD, instead of 
randomly placing them seperately.

I guess crush may support this. But to do this, I just have to configure 
some parameters in some ceph commands? or I have to modify the ceph 
crush algorithm and re-compile ceph?

Many thanks for any helpful pointers.

Cheers, Giovanni

There are some options within CRUSH to let you decide where you want
to place particular classes of data, but it's not really available on
a per-object or per-file basis. You should look through the CRUSH
stuff at ceph.com/docs to get an idea of what's possible.

May be able to meet your needs through rbd.

You can create multiple rules,and then specify a different pool to use a 
different ruleset.
Then create multiple block images, and Specify image to different pools.
create  file system on the block device and mount file system on 
different positions,so that the different location of the file can use 
different ruleset
