Hello everyone,

does it make sense to create SSD only pool from OSDs without journal?

 From my point of view, the SSDs are so fast that OSD journal on the SSD
will not make much of a difference.

Actually, you can't, as the OSD journal is an implementation detail of 
Ceph's architecture.


It's not there only for performance benefits (i.e. writes are stored 
sequentially before acknowledgement), but also for integrity purposes, 
like in journalled filesystems.

No, because AFAIK you can't have OSDs without journals yet.
IIRC there is work done for alternate stores where you wouldn't need
journals anymore but it's not yet production ready.
