[ceph-users] ceph-deploy journal on separate partition - quck info needed
Hi all, when I run: ceph-deploy osd create SERVER:sdi:/dev/sdb5 (sdi = previously ZAP-ed 4TB drive) (sdb5 = previously manually created empty partition with fdisk) Is ceph-deploy going to create journal properly on sdb5 (something similar to: ceph-osd -i $ID --mkjournal ), or do I need to do something before this ? I have actually already run this command but havent seen any "mkjournal" commands in the output OSD shows as up and in, but I have doubts if journal is fine (symlink does link to /dev/sdb5) but again... Any confimration is welcomed Thanks, -- Andrija Panić ___ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@lists.ceph.com http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com

If the journal file on the osd is a symlink to the partition and the OSD process is running, then the journal was created properly. The OSD would not start if the journal was not created.

ok, thx Robert - I expected that so this is fine then - just done it on 12 OSDs and all fine... thx again On 17 April 2015 at 23:38, Robert LeBlanc wrote: > If the journal file on the osd is a symlink to the partition and the OSD > process is running, then the journal was created properly.
