Please note that I made a mistake in my email. The machine that I want to run on write first, is S1 not S3 For the life of me I cannot find how to extract the crush map. I found: ceph osd getcrushmap -o crushfilename Where can I find the crush file? I've never needed this. This is my first installation, so please bear with my while I learn! Lionel: I read what you're saying. However, the strange thing is that last year I had this Windows 2008 VM running on the same cluster without changes and coming back from leave in the new year, it has crawled to a painfully slow state. And I don't quite know where to start to trace this. The windows machine is not the problem, since even before windows starts up the boot process of the VM is very slow. thanks Roland > > > > 2015-01-13 22:03 GMT+01:00 Roland Giesler <rol...@giesler.za.net>: > >> I have a 4 node ceph cluster, but the disks are not equally distributed >> across all machines (they are substantially different from each other) >> >> One machine has 12 x 1TB SAS drives (h1), another has 8 x 300GB SAS (s3) >> and two machines have only two 1 TB drives each (s2 & s1). >> >> Now machine s3 has by far the most CPU's and RAM, so I'm running my VM's >> mostly from there, but I want to make sure that the writes that happen to >> the ceph cluster get written to the "local" osd's on s3 first and then the >> additional writes/copies get done to the network. >> >> Is this possible with ceph.
