Hi Vikrant,
In the crush map, you can assign certain pools to certain OSDs. For example, you could put the images pool on the OSDs that are in charge of the HDD and the volumes pool on the OSDs that are in charge of the SSD. You can find a guide here: http://www.sebastien-han.fr/blog/2012/12/07/ceph-2-speed-storage-with-crush/ I also use Ceph as a backend storage for Openstack and I thought about that solution when I built our cloud. However I ended up using the SSD as journals for the OSD. With that solution, dd can write on cephfs at 460 MB/s with the option conv=fdatasync (I used a 12 GB file for the tests) A little context might help: we received 10 servers (4 computes and 6 storages). The storage have 12 slots for SAS/SATA drives and the SSD are on PCIe (384 MB of SSD per node). The PCIe SSD are special because they are seen as 16 drives of 24 GB by udev. We use 2 of them in Raid1 for the OS and the rest in Raid0 for the journals. Why Raid0? Because alone they weren't that fast. I hope that might help you choose the right solution for your needs.

Ceph Cluster is configured as Storage back-end for images and volumes. As part of my experimentation i thought of clubbing few disks (say HDD) with one type of QoS and other few disks (say SSD) with another type of QoS. But the configuration/design does not seems to be efficient as you suggested, rather i am trying now to put QoS on volumes itself. Thanks for your suggestions.

Februar 2014 19:03 yes, I want to use multiple hard drives with a single OSD. Is it possible to have it? It' s perfectly possible, but at the expense of redundancy, resilience and/or speed. You can use some RAID, then loosing one hardrive (or more, depending on the RAID Level) is not big deal regarding redundancy, but it slows down the whole system while recovering the RAID, after changing the faulty drive. If you do something like LVM to "pool" multiple physical disks, even loosing one disk brings down the whole OSD. On the contrary using one OSD per physical disk gives you all the flexibility, redundancy and speed you want to have, so I wonder why you don't want to do that?
