Will throw my US $0.02 in here... We’re running CentOS 6.4[1] + modern Ceph, VMs are managed by CloudStack. We use distro packages whenever possible - most times folks suggest building something from source, I have to be dragged kicking and screaming to agreement.
Ceph support is one of the very few exceptions. We build/package/sign modern kernels (3.6.11), modern libvirt (0.9.13), modern qemu (1.2.0) and probably a few other bits. The improved functionality is easily worth the effort. John 1:Due to RH Cloud agreements we’ll have to run RHEL hypervisors soon, will be happy to share thoughts on getting Ceph working with that once we do it On Dec 6, 2013, at 5:25 AM, Chris C <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Wido, we were thinking along that line as well. We're trying to figure out which path will cause the least amount of pain ;) /C On Fri, Dec 6, 2013 at 3:27 AM, Wido den Hollander <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: On 12/05/2013 10:44 PM, Chris C wrote: I've been working on getting this setup working. I have virtual machines working using rbd based images by editing the domain directly. Is there any way to make the creation process better? We are hoping to be able to use a virsh pool using the rbd driver but it appears that Redhat has not compiled libvirt with rbd support. Thought? Recompile libvirt? Since RedHat hasn't enabled the RBD support in libvirt that's your problem. Might be that they'll do it in RHEL 7 where librbd is available natively?
