Question: I've not gone through a setup yet, just an interested lurker reading and interpreting capabilities at this time.
my understanding of Ceph journal is that one can use a partition or a file on a Filesystem.... if i use a filesystem, i can have assured integrity if the FS does this for me (ala BTRFS) If i choose to use a partition for the journal: --does this get auto-formatted with a filesystem? (if so, what?) --I assume no filesystem; but is there check-summing of all data within the journal? Journal Performance: --Is the performance of the journal synchronous or asynchronous? --is the performance limited by the performance of the journals queue depth 1 capability? (much like zfs) --is the journal write pattern random, or largely sequential? --if i understand; is it correct to say that *all* writes, no matter sync or async from the client will go into the journal, correct? thank you
