bbgeek17 replied to the thread [SOLVED] Streched unbalanced cluster.I don't think Op ever said they would use Ceph. Its the opposite - they specifically said that they are not using Ceph, probably because a common advice in general (especially outside of this forum) is to use Ceph. Blockbridge : Ultra low...

bbgeek17 replied to the thread iSCSI/LVM RHEL guest disk scheduler selection.Hi @baalkor, I understand the recommendation in the Red Hat documentation, but the right choice really depends on two factors: what you're optimizing for (latency, IOPS, or bandwidth) and how fast your iSCSI SAN actually is.
