Hi,

I'm thinking of starting to use ceph initially for evaluation...seeing how it compares to our existing lustre file system. One thing that I would like confirmation of is how ceph stores large files. If I store a large file in CephFS is it automatically split up into chunks with the various chunks stored and replicated automatically across the whole cluster, or does it store the whole file as one object on one individial OSD and then has individual replicants of the whole file on a small number of other OSD's ? What is the typical block size used if files are split up....can this be configured ?

Regards,

Emyr
