Hi!

Thanks for the hint, but I get this error:

[ceph_deploy][ERROR ] ConfigError: Cannot load config: [Errno 2] No such file 
or directory: 'ceph.conf'; has `ceph-deploy new` been run in this directory?

Obviously, ceph-deploy only works if the cluster has been managed with 
ceph-deply all along (and I won’t risk messing with my cluster by attempting to 
“retrofit” ceph-deply to it)…
I’ll setup a single VM cluster to squeeze out the necessary commands and check 
back…

Regards,

Martin

Hi!

I’d like to set up new OSDs with bluestore: the real data (“block”) on a 
spinning disk, and DB+WAL on a SSD partition.

But I do not use ceph-deploy, and never used ceph-disk (I set up the filestore 
OSDs manually).
Google tells me that ceph-disk does not (yet) support splitting the components 
across multiple block devices, I also had no luck while attempting it anyways. 
(using Ceph 12.1 RC1)

why not give ceph-deploy a chance, It has options to specify for db and wal in 
command line. you dont have to worry about what options to pass to ceph-disk as 
it encapsulates that

ex: ceph-deploy osd create --bluestore --block-wal /dev/nvme0n1 --block-db 
/dev/nvme0n1 p30:sdb



I just can’t find documentation on how to set up a bluestore OSD manually:


  *   How do I “prepare” the block, block.wal and block.db blockdevices? Just 
directing ceph-osd to the block devices via ceph.conf does not seem to be 
enough.
  *   Do bluestore OSDs still use/need a separate journal file/device? Or ist 
that replaced by the WAL?

http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/ also has not very much information on using 
bluestore, is this documentation deprecated?

The document has fallen behind for manual deployment and ceph-deploy usage for 
bluestore as well, but if you use the above command, it will clearly throw out 
what it is doing and how ceph-disk is being called, those
are essentially manual steps that should go in document. I think we have a 
tracker for update which is pending for sometime.


Thanks for any hints,

Martin
