No, but we talked back when I was building our 2nd production cluster and while waiting for parts did make a temporary all SSD one by using all the prospective journals SSDs. And definitely maxed out on CPU long before the SSDs got busy when doing 4KB rados benches or similar. OTOH that same machine only uses about 4 cores out of 16 when doing the same thing in its current configuration with 8 HDDs and 4 journal SSDs. > I think we touched on this before, that the ghz per > OSD is probably more like 100mhz per IOP.

My own rule of thumb is 1GHz or slightly less per OSD for pure HDD based clusters and about 1.5GHz for ones with SSD journals. Round up for OS and (in my case frequently) MON usage.

Ah typo, I meant to say 10Mhz per IO. So a 7.2k disk does around 80IOPs = ~ 800mhz which is close to the 1Ghz figure.

That was my initial thought, but reading that paper I linked, the 4MB tests are the ones that bring the CPU's to their knees. I think the erasure calculation is a large part of the overall CPU usage and more data with the larger IO's causes a significant increase in CPU requirements. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I recall Christian, that your cluster is a full SSD cluster? I think we touched on this before, that the ghz per OSD is probably more like 100mhz per IOP.

Re: [ceph-users] Recomendations for building 1PB RadosGW with Erasure Code
Thanks for posting your experiences John, very interesting read. I think the
golden rule of around 1Ghz is still a realistic goal to aim for. It looks like
you probably have around 16ghz for 60OSD's, or 0.26Ghz per OSD. Do you have any
idea on how much CPU you think you would need to just be able to get away with
it?
I have 24Ghz for 12 OSD's (2x2620v2) and I typically don't see CPU usage over
about 20%, which indicates to me the bare minimum for a replicated pool is
probably around 0.5Ghz per 7.2k rpm OSD. The next nodes we have will certainly
have less CPU.

I always go with at least 2GB RAM per OSD, since during a full node restart and the consecutive peering OSDs will grow large, a LOT larger than their usual steady state size. RAM isn't that expensive these days and additional RAM comes in very handy when used for pagecache and SLAB (dentry) stuff. Something else to think about in your specific use case is to have RAID'ed OSDs. It's a bit of zero sum game probably, but compare the above config with this. 11 nodes, each with: 34 6TB SATAs (2x 17HDDs RAID6) 2 200GB S3700 SSDs (journal/OS) Just 2 OSDs per node. Ceph with replication of 2. Just shy of 1PB of effective space. Minus: More physical space, less efficient HDD usage (replication vs. EC). Plus: A lot less expensive SSDs, less CPU and RAM requirements, smaller impact in case of node failure/maintenance. No ideas about the stuff below.

Re: [ceph-users] Recomendations for building 1PB RadosGW with Erasure Code
We use dual E5-2660 V2 with 56 6T and performance has not been an issue. It will easily saturate the 40G interfaces and saturate the spindle io. And yes, you can run dual servers attached to 30 disk each. This gives you lots of density. Your failure domain will remain as individual servers. The only thing shared is the quad power supplies.

With ucs you can run dual server and split the disk. 30 drives per node. Better density and easier to manage.

Re: [ceph-users] Recomendations for building 1PB RadosGW with Erasure Code
Nick, Tyler, many thanks for very helpful feedback! I spent many hours meditating on the following two links: http://www.supermicro.com/solutions/storage_ceph.cfm http://s3s.eu/cephshop 60- or even 72-disk nodes are very capacity-efficient, but will the 2 CPUs (even the fastest ones) be enough to handle Erasure Coding? Also as Nick stated with 4-5 nodes I cannot use high-M "K+M" combinations. I've did some calculations and found that the most efficient and safe configuration is to use 10 nodes with 29*6TB SATA and 7*200GB S3700 for journals. Assuming 6+3 EC profile that will give me 1.16 PB of effective space. Also I prefer not to use precious NVMe drives. Don't see any reason to use them. But what about RAM? Can I go with 64GB per node with above config? I've seen OSDs are consuming not more than 1GB RAM for replicated pools (even 6TB ones). But what is the typical memory usage of EC pools? Does anybody know that? Also, am I right that for 6+3 EC profile i need at least 10 nodes to feel comfortable (one extra node for redundancy)? And finally can someone recommend what EC plugin to use in my case? I know it's a difficult question but anyway? 2016-02-16 16:12 GMT+08:00 Nick Fisk : > > >> -Original Message- >> From: ceph-users [mailto:ceph-users-boun...@lists.ceph.com] On Behalf Of >> Tyler Bishop >> Sent: 16 February 2016 04:20 >> To: Василий Ангапов >> Cc: ceph-users >> Subject: Re: [ceph-users] Recomendations for building 1PB RadosGW with >> Erasure Code >> >> You should look at a 60 bay 4U chassis like a Cisco UCS C3260. >> >> We run 4 systems at 56x6tB with dual E5-2660 v2 and 256gb ram. >> Performance is excellent. > > Only thing I will say to the OP, is that if you only need 1PB, then likely > 4-5 of these will give you enough capacity.

Re: [ceph-users] Recomendations for building 1PB RadosGW with Erasure Code
Just to add, check out this excellent paper by Mark http://www.spinics.net/lists/ceph-users/attachments/pdf6QGsF7Xi1G.pdf Unfortunately his test hardware at the time didn't have enough horsepower to give an accurate view on required CPU for EC pools over all the tests.

Only thing I will say to the OP, is that if you only need 1PB, then likely 4-5 of these will give you enough capacity. Personally I would prefer to spread the capacity around more nodes. If you are doing anything serious with Ceph its normally a good idea to try and make each node no more than 10% of total capacity.

Re: [ceph-users] Recomendations for building 1PB RadosGW with Erasure Code
You should look at a 60 bay 4U chassis like a Cisco UCS C3260. We run 4 systems at 56x6tB with dual E5-2660 v2 and 256gb ram. Performance is excellent. I would recommend a cache tier for sure if your data is busy for reads.

It will be used for storing online videos. We do not expect outstanding write performace, something like 200-300MB/s of sequental write will be quite enough, but data safety is very important. What are the most popular hardware and software recomendations? 1) What EC profile is best to use? What values of K/M do you recommend? 2) Do I need to use Cache Tier for RadosGW or it is only needed for RBD? Is it still an overall good practice to use Cache Tier for RadosGW? 3) What hardware is recommended for EC? I assume higher-clocked CPUs are needed? What about RAM? 4) What SSDs for Ceph journals are the best? Thanks a lot!
