Hi Eugen,

Reminder: I'm looking for guidance / hints on how to migrate from filestore to bluestore using a "per-osd device copy":

I think by "copy function" would be the "bluefs-bdev-migrate" command from ceph-bluestore-tool, this is an excerpt from the man paage:

It looks like ceph-bluestore-tool is purely about dealing with bluestore osds, there's no facility to migrate from filestore to bluestore.

There have been several threads about the process on this list, I don't have a link at hand right now.

I've not been able to find any threads relating to migrating from filestore to bluestore using a per-osd device copy - i.e. where the osd data is copied directly from an original filestore store to a new bluestore store, then the new store "becomes" the original osd.

The advantage of doing this would be to remove the rebalancing involved in the simple method of creating a new bluestore osd and marking out the old filestore osd (then rinse and repeat until all filestores have been replaced).

Cheers,

Chris
