You want write cache to disk, no write cache for SSD. 

I assume all of your data disk are single drive raid 0?

Subject: [ceph-users] Hardware cache settings recomendation 



Hi, 

Please help me with hardware cache settings on controllers for ceph rbd best 
performance. All Ceph hosts have one SSD drive for journal. 



We are using 4 different controllers, all with BBU: 

· HP Smart Array P400 

· HP Smart Array P410i 

· Dell PERC 6/i 

· Dell PERC H700 



I have to set cache policy, on Dell settings are: 

· Read Policy 

o Read-Ahead (current) 

o No-Read-Ahead 

o Adaptive Read-Ahead 

· Write Policy 

o Write-Back (current) 

o Write-Through 

· Cache Policy 

o Cache I/O 

o Direct I/O (current) 

· Disk Cache Policy 

o Default (current) 

o Enabled 

o Disabled 

On HP controllers: 

· Cache Ratio (current: 25% Read / 75% Write) 

· Drive Write Cache 

o Enabled (current) 

o Disabled 



And there is one more setting in LogicalDrive option: 

· Caching: 

o Enabled (current) 

o Disabled 



Please verify my settings and give me some recomendations. 

Best regards, 

Mateusz
