It's probably more a question of IOPS unless you have really slow SSDs. :)

We have the model with 25 disks per node.

We have just two 10G network interfaces per node. Does that not limit
the thgouthput and hence the load on the CPUs?

Hi,

with HP SL4540 server?

this model http://www8.hp.com/h20195/v2/GetDocument.aspx?docname=c04128155
?

(60 drives ?)

I think for a full ssd node, it'll be impossible to reach max performance,
you'll be cpu bound.


I think a small node with 6-8 ssd osd  for 20cores should be ok.

Thanks for the tips.
Could anyone share their experience building a SSD pool or a SSD cache
tier with HP SL4540 server?

Hi all,

we are considering building all SSD OSD servers for RBD pool.

I'd advise you to spend significant time reading the various threads in
this ML about SSD based pools.
Both about the current shortcomings and limitations of SSD pools and which

SSDs to (not) use.

Couple of questions:

Does Ceph have any recommendation for number of cores/memory/ghz per
SSD drive, similar to what is usually followed for hard drives(1
core/1 GB Ram/1Ghz speed)?

Note that that 1GHz core per OSD only applies with pure HDD OSDs, once a
journal SSD enters the picture you're likely to want 2-3 times that.

You probably don't want to try this with anything less than the
upcoming Hammer release, but even with that the current rule for SSD based

pools is "the fastest cores you can afford and as many as possible".
And given the right loads, small write IOPS basically, you're probably
still going to be CPU bound.

RAM is the same as with HDD based OSDs, but given how much more RAM helps

I would advise at least 2GB per OSD and as much as you can afford.

Regards,

Christian
thanks,
Sreenath
