Hi,
I want to use Ceph with oVirt in some non standard way. The main idea is to
map rbd volume to all computes and to get the same block device, say
/dev/foo/bar, across all nodes, and then use "POSIX compliant file systems"
option to add Storage Domain.
Am I crazy?
Yes
Thnx :)
If not, what should I do next: create a file system on top of
/dev/foo/bar, say XFS, and add DATA Domain as POSIX compliant? Does it work,
I mean does oVirt compatible with not clustered file system in this
scenario?
This can work only for clustered file system, not with XFS. Double mounting will
quickly corrupt the file system.
Can you tell me what FS should I choose to do some experiments?
And in general: what is use cases for option like "POSIX compliant FS"?
Mostly, I want to use rbd like oVirt do with iSCSI storage just to have
scalability and high availability (for example, when one storage node
failed).
You have two ways to use ceph:
- via cinder - you will get best performance and scalability
- via cephfs - you will get all features, works like fault tolerant NFS
Nir
Thanks for advice.
PS. Yes, I know about Gluster but want to use Ceph :)
