    Ceph deep-scrubbing performance optimization

    We are using Ceph on three nodes (10g). There are one HDD pool (3 OSDs per node) and one NVMe pool. The NVMes are used for the HDD WALs and DBs, too. For each OSD osd_max_scrubs is set to 1. During the deep scrubbing phases (I have limited this to some hours during the night) the cluster is...

    [SOLVED] Possible bluestoreDB bug in Ceph 17.2.8

    Hi all, Recently the latest version of PVE-Ceph Quincy released (17.2.8)* within the Enterprise repository. However on another (non-PVE ceph) storage cluster we experienced quite the nasty bug related to BluestoreDB (https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/69764). Causing OSD's to crash and recover...

    Node reboot while disk operation in Ceph

    Hello! I have another issue I'd appreciate a community feedback from. One of our nodes crashed during last Friday inexplicably during migration of a vm disk from ceph storage to a local one. I'm attaching ceph log on pastebin as it's too long: https://pastebin.com/wkxHP7rt proxmox-ve: 8.3.0...

    Ceph OSD drives disconnect when I move LXC storage to it

    Hi, I’m running Plex in an LXC container with the root disk on my local-zfs storage. However, when I try to move the storage to my ceph pool, my local OSD drives disconnect during the process. I tried doing something similar with a larger VM disk (300GB) with no issues. Likewise, when I move...

    [SOLVED] Increase CEPH Replication during operation

    Hello, I have a cluster of 9 nodes, with a default crush map and a replication (size) of 3, and min_size of 2. Are there any points against increasing the size to 5 and min_size 3 during operation to handle a higher failure of individual nodes? Enough disk space is available, I am aware of...

    [SOLVED] Network issues with Ceph after Proxmox node restart (OVS, MTU 8900)

    We are using Open vSwitch (OVS) for networking in our Proxmox VE cluster. We are experiencing a network issue after restarting a node – Ceph is not immediately ready, and HEALTH_OK status takes several minutes to appear instead of just a few seconds. Observed behavior: • Ping with MTU...

    Cephadm at Proxmox nodes

    Hello, I just want to ask, is it possible for me to install Ceph with Cephadm on a Proxmox node? then I install the RBD from Ceph as a storage disk image / container? I think the Ceph that is included in Proxmox is less customizable, and cannot implement Orchestrator on Ceph Proxmox.

    removing OSD on failed Hardware leaves the OSD service

    Hello all, Here is the situation : We have a Ceph cluster on top of proxmox on Dell Hardware. On of the DELL virtual disk failed, hence the corresponding OSD failed. This is a HDD disk not NVME and "thankfully" the bluestore was not split out on local NVME disks. Anyway, we followed the...

    Local Ephemeral Storage for HA VM

    Hello, just after a bit of implementation advice for planning out a cluster. Scenario - VMs running on ceph as a high availability cluster, but attached to each VM is an additional drive which is just for storing ephemeral data as a high-speed cache. This data does not need to survive a...

    Failed Backup wiederherstellen

    Mit dem Titel fängt es ja schon mal sehr gut an. Wir haben ein kleines Problem: Wir müssen eine VM aus dem Backup wiederherstellen und leider sind unsere Backups failed. Warum fragen wir trotzdem? Im Backup liegen 5 SCSi Abbilder, welche ursprünglich aus einem Ceph Cluster stammen. Nur die...

    Cleanup leftover Ceph OSD services/files after unsuccessful removal of the OSD

    Hello, I had OSD 23 on one of my hosts but the drive failed so we stopped the services and removed it. We did not need to replace it immediately (lots of OSDs in the cluster so not a lot of capacity lost) so I didn't pay much attention to it. Sometime in the last couple of months another disk...

    Ceph monitor (mon caps) permissions

    I hope this message finds you well. I would like to gain a clearer understanding of the Monitor permissions (mon caps) in Ceph. Specifically, could you explain what actions these permissions allow, and what exactly can be executed or written with them? Thank you in advance :)

    How to upgrade Ceph 18.2.2 to 18.2.4

    Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to upgrade Ceph from 18.2.2 to 18.2.4. I've found this document describing going from Reef to Squid but I want to get to the latest Reef 18.2.4 first. I know I can use that procedure to get to 18.2.4 if I don't update my ceph repo file to squid but then I'll...

    Migration from VMware to Proxmox: Reusing Hardware Proxmox-SAN

    What are the best storage configurations in Proxmox to access a SAN with multiple nodes while ensuring high performance, redundancy, and simultaneous access? How do options like ZFS over iSCSI, ZFS over NVMe/TCP, Ceph compare in terms of latency, scalability, and complexity? The goal is to...
