I have been task to test CEPH. I have two DELL PE R515 machines running ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I understand that I need to make one the admin node where I will be able to run all the commands and the other node the server, where osd processes will be running. The admin node could be a Ceph monitor, so with 2 servers you can have something like : - node1 : MON + 6 OSD - node2 : 6 OSD Ceph monitors number need to be an odd number in order to satisfy the quorum needs, thus if you don't want to have a SPOF with only one mon (although its fine for testing purpose), you should add a third server (could be less powerfull if it only act as a mon). As of my comprehension, the best way to start a Ceph cluster is to have at least 3 nodes. Cheers The machines have: 6 x 1TB HDDs, 2 x 8-core processors, and 128GB Memory. How do I go about coming up with a working storage cluster? Any help/advise please Regards, Sakhi Hadebe SANReN Engineer - CSIR Meraka Institute Tel: +27 12 841 2308 Fax: +27 12 841 4223 http://www.sanren.ac.za -- This message is subject to the CSIR's copyright terms and conditions, e-mail legal notice, and implemented Open Document Format (ODF) standard.
