Well, in my production setups, disks just never "grow", they get replaced, so having ceph work redo a disk with a bad setting by adding another and remaking the OSD is kind of how we do it. I get that it can be interesting to see how to live-grow what basically amounts to a database on a partition, but since we left filestore which was easy to expand in this manner for bluestore, this is a lot harder now, but it was never a real use-case for serious ceph clusters at our place to mess around with partition sizes in this way. Yes, we use whole disks, but ceph-volume makes them into lvm (with cryptsetup on top if asked) anyhow for other reasons than resizing support. -- May the most significant bit of your life be positive. _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
