Ceph Cluster Expansion Documentation?

[cfgmgr]

Hello!

I was reviewing the following documentation here:
https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html

I can't seem to locate a document anywhere that describes expanding an existing cluster with another like node? While I do understand that everyones cluster is different - there is no offical documentation on this? There are various threads that offer clues and snippets, but nothing offical.

Is this an oversight on my part (not looking at the right documentation)?

Thanks!

Hi @cfgmgr , is this not it?

Ah! You are correct. However in my hurry I wasn't specific. I need to edit the title.

Do you know where the Ceph specific items are? Or do I just need to real the upstream docs and "figure it out" ?

Appreciate the repsonse!

Thanks!

While I am not a Ceph expert, I believe the following article covers the steps:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Deploy_Hyper-Converged_Ceph_Cluster

It may not have an isolated "add new node" section, but adding an OSD/monitor is akin to adding a new "ceph member". Which, as you noticed, is not the same as adding a new node to PVE cluster.

Good luck
