Hello,
The snapshot with a cache tier part was answered by Greg Farnum
(https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg18329.html).
What about fstrim with a cache tier ? It doesn't seem to work.
Also is there a background task that recovers freed blocks ?
Best regards,
Frédéric.

Hello,
I have a few questions regarding snapshots and fstrim with cache tiers.
In the "cache tier and erasure coding FAQ" related to ICE 1.2 (based
on Firefly), Inktank says "Snapshots are not supported in conjunction
with cache tiers."
What are the risks of using snapshots with cache tiers ? Would this
"better not use it recommandation" still be true with Giant or Hammer ?
Regarding the fstrim command, it doesn't seem to work with cache
tiers. The freed up blocks don't get back in the ceph cluster.
Can someone confirm this ? Is there something we can do to get those
freed up blocks back in the cluster ?
Also, can we run an fstrim task from the cluster side ? That is,
without having to map and mount each rbd image or rely on the client
to operate this task ?
Best regards,
