Hi all, Was wondering what is the best way to add a new osd server to the small ceph cluster? I am interested in minimising performance degradation as the cluster is live and actively used.
At the moment i've got the following setup: 2 osd servers (9 osds each) Journals on Intel 520/530 ssds 3 mon servers Infiniband 40gbit/s interconnect (using ipoib) Replication: 2 The cluster will be modified to become: 3 osd servers (10 osds each) Journals on Intel S3710 ssds (one ssd to five osds) Replication: 2 What I am interested to learn is the best way to upgrade my cluster without having much performance problems. Should I first add an additional osd to the existing two osd servers, wait for the cluster to sync and then add the 3rd osd server? Or should I add the third osd server with 9 osds, wait for the cluster to sync and replicate and add one osd to the three osd servers? Or should I just add the third osd server with 10 osds and additional osd to the existing osd servers and wait for everything to sync? Many thanks Andrei
