An RBD image is split up into (by default 4MB) objects within the OSDs. When you delete an RBD image, all the objects associated with the image are removed from the OSDs. The objects are not securely erased from the OSDs if that is what you are asking.

Are the data just unlinked or are them destroyed in a way that make them unreadable? thanks Giuseppe _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
