Understood.
I shall replace now all HDDs with SSDs and perform again the same test to see if anything significant changes and I'll publish here the results. Do you expect any performance improvement on CEPHFS in any of their future releases? Has anything been put in roadmap yet?
Agreed. As matter of fact we would only use BIND MOUNT with container and Kernel module for all clients running outside ProxMox on bare metal (or as VMs not containers).
What is concerning us is that significant difference in performance we are already discussing in the thread mentioned above...
That's exactly the point. We need shared filesystems. We are currently comparing CEPHFS performances against GPFS and Nutanix NDFS.
That being said, I am afraid I did not understand your point.
Both in case a. and b. above we are accessing CEPHFS. Only in case a. the container virtual disk is...
Still working on benchmarking CEPHFS, we noted the following different behavior:
a. A container with a virtual disk stored on CEPHFS, benchmark running on its local /tmp, bandwidth of approx 450MB/s
b. Same container with BIND MOUNT exported by host and benchmark running on this shared folder...
I'll let you know on Monday. I only have access to the cluster for few hours a day. In the meanwhile if you have a way to let me load the module on the host kernel, I would much appreciate it.
Best regards

Client OS mount fails with:
[root@ct-test-02 /]# mount -t ceph 10.244.70.35:6789:/shared /mnt/ceph -o name=1,secretfile=/etc/ceph/ceph.client.1.secret
failed to load ceph kernel module (1)
mount error 1 = Operation not permitted
Do you have any idea on why?
I have already answered to your note above and I have never said it was in the RedHat document (I wander from where you interpreted it).
I will re-answer for clarity and for future readers: ceph-deploy is mentioned in the official CEPH documentation. RedHat documentation does not need to...
Well, then you should probably alert potential users of the fact that, although you made available CEPHFS, its access from external client is not supported (or, as you say, you didn't want it to be its primary use), rather than stating all over that you now have support to CEPHFS (without...
Because what others document for their OSs start from the assumption that not only the client but also the cluster is built on their OSs.
While what I am trying to do is to mount CEPHFS, built on your OS, onto another client OS.
Example is, you don't use ceph-deploy, which instead is the...
Forget the other examples, those were just examples. Let me try to be more clear for you.
Can you please point me out to your documentation where you show which packages need to be installed on a ceph client in order to mount cephfs?
Of course not.
As I wrote, ceph-deploy is referenced only in the official CEPH documentation (see here).
Besides, RedHat has done its job and has created their repository to install all the necessary packages for their CEPHFS clients (Ubuntu, CentOS, etc).
What I am asking you is: Which...
I would like to mount CEPHFS on a Client.
Since CEPHFS version is Nautilus, I decided to use, as client, a container running CentOS 7. It might have well been an external physical machine, just happened I wanted to try with a container. Yes, CEPHFS is already installed on ProxMox and working...
