Re: [ceph-users] SAS-Exp 9300-8i or Raid-Contr 9750-4i ?

2015-04-24 Thread Weeks, Jacob (RIS-BCT)
I'm not sure if the megacli tools will work with your model, it would have to 
be tested. They tend to be able to control LSI RAID controllers to varying 
degrees.

The advantage of using JBOD mode vs raid-single-disk is that you may run into 
issues when swapping drives, the drive letters may change. Also, JBOD mode 
removes a layer of operational complexity.

Thanks,

Jacob

Hi Jacob,
are you sure, that megacli is correct for the 9750-4i (not 9750-4i4e) ?
The 9750-4i is not in the list of supported devices.

btw, what makes the difference between jbod and raid-single-disk?

Thanks,
   Markus

 This is the command for switching the RAID controller to JBOD mode:

 #megacli -AdpSetProp -EnableJBOD -1 -aAll

 Hi,
 i will upgrade my existing Hardware (in 3 SC847-cases with 30 HDDs each) the 
 next days.
 Should i buy a SAS-Expander 9300-8i or keep my existing Raid-Contr 9750-4i.

 The 9300 will give me real Jbod , the 9750 only single-disk Raids.

 Does this make a real difference ? Should i spend or keep money?

Re: [ceph-users] increase pg num

2015-03-10 Thread Weeks, Jacob (RIS-BCT)
I am not sure about v0.80.6-1 but in v0.80.7 the --allow-experimental-feature 
 option is not required. I have increased pg_num and pgp_num in v0.80.7 
without any issues.

on how big cluster, how long did it take to recovery from this change?

The largest pool was roughly 200TB.
It took less than 30 minutes.

I took a look at the changelog between the version you're running and the 
version I performed this change on, as far as I can tell, nothing was changed 
that made this feature non-experimental.

http://ceph.com/docs/master/release-notes/ 

It may be safer to make the change incrementally rather than all at once. 
Since v0.72, ceph does not allow extreme changes in pg_num sizes.

It make sense, thanks.

Thanks,
Jacob

Hello, 
I'm running debian 8 with ceph 0.80.6-1 firefly in production and I need to 
double the count of pgs. I've found that it was experimantal feature, is it

Is there still --allow-experimental-feature switch for ceph osd pool set

Re: [ceph-users] Help needed

There should be a *.client.admin.keyring file in the directory you were in 
while you ran ceph-deploy.

Try copying that file to /etc/ceph/
