    How can I rename the external rbd pool to something more meaningful?

    @Richard I am asking why the Proxmox GUI won't let me use any other name than rbd....Why is the option even there to change the pool name, when you proxmox GUI only lets you use "rbd" as the pool name. This means that I am unable to add multiple rbd pools to ceph because proxmox only allows...

    How can I rename the external rbd pool to something more meaningful?

    Currently, no matter what you put in the GUI, once you save the rbd pool, with whatever name, it always saves as rbd. This interferes with adding multiple external rbd pools. Can you please suggest how I can counter this?

    Proxmox doesn't follow ceph.conf on external ceph cluster

    For the rbd pool we shouldn't have to specify --data on every single image creation. I hope proxmox by default doesn't do it as the pool being used is the default rbd pool regardless of the following setting in my ceph.conf which is followed by openstack. [client.admin] rbd default data pool =...

    Support External RBD And CephFS with Erasure Coded Data Pool

    We want to run backup of CephFS with erasure coded backed pool at k=10 m=2, but we couldn't get this to mount on our proxmox ve 5.3 Also, being able to create EC RBD pools would be great where we are running with k=2 m=1, which has faster reads at low disk cost than replica=3

    How many KVM with this server's configuration?

    Also, get datacenter ssd, not a cheapo ssd like samsung evo/pro. If anyone will run mysql / fsync calls, that will sink the ssd. Get a proper datacenter ssd that can support high fsync calls.
