Hello,
I'm testing and learning about ceph and I have one problem:
The test cluster is formed by 3 nodes. If 2 nodes goes down with only one node on, I can't recover the data because I don't have enough monitors quorum for Ceph. The ceph -s is locked and if I try to access through GUI it shows: "Go timeout(500)".

Is there any instruction/option to force quorum to recover this data?.
In proxmox exists the "pvecm expected 1" to allow a node force the quorum.

Thank you very much.
 
Try to force quorum by running this command:

Code:
pvecm expected 1
 
The "pvecm expected 1" is only the quorum for the proxmox cluster, not the ceph cluster.
You need at least 2 monitor ceph nodes of 3 power on to access ceph data.
