In our department we're getting starting with Ceph 'reef', using Ceph FUSE
client for our Ubuntu workstations.
So far so good, except I can't quite figure out one aspect of subvolumes.
When I do the commands:
[root@ceph1 ~]# ceph fs subvolumegroup create cephfs csvg
[root@ceph1 ~]# ceph fs subvolume create cephfs staff csvg --size 2000000000000
I get these results:
- A subvolume group csvg is created on volume cephfs
- A subvolume called staff is created in csvg subvolume (like
/volumes/csvg/staff ) however there is no size limit set at this folder in the
Ceph dashboard view
- A folder with an random UUID name is created inside the subvolume staff (
like /volumes/csvg/staff/6a1b3de5-f6ab-4878-aea3-3c3c6f96ffcf ); this folder
does have a size set on it of 2TB
My questions are:
- what's the purpose of this UUID, and is it a requirement?
- which directory should be mounted for my clients, staff/ or staff/{UUID}, for
the size limit to take effect?
- is there any way to hide or disable this UUID for client mounts? (eg in
/etc/fstab)
[root@ceph1 ~]# ceph fs subvolume getpath cephfs staff csvg
/volumes/csvg/staff/6a1b3de5-f6ab-4878-aea3-3c3c6f96ffcf
[root@ceph1 ~]# ceph fs subvolume ls cephfs csvg
[
{
"name": "staff"
}
]
