Hello David,

Thank you!
We setup 2 pools to use EC with RBD. One ecpool and other normal replicated
pool.

However, would it still be advantageous to add a replicated cache tier in
front of an EC one, even though it is not required anymore? I would still
assume that replication would be less intensive than EC computing?
