Multiple "pools" with CEPH storage

[nz_monkey]

Hi There,

We have Proxmox 2.2 up and running with our CEPH cluster. We are currently just using the default "rbd" pool but also have a number of other pools we would like to be able to use.

Is it possible to have multiple pools from the same CEPH cluster in Proxmox ?


At the moment it looks like it just displays the one "ceph" item and has no provision to show multiple pools under this cluster.

Hi,
sure, just add a new rbd storage in /etc/pve/storage.cfg, and change the pool option

rbd: rbdstorage1
        authsupported none
        pool rbd
        monhost x.x.x.x:6789;x.x.x.x:6789;x.x.x.x:6789
        username admin

rbd: rbdstorage2
        authsupported none
        pool otherpool
        monhost x.x.x.x:6789;x.x.x.x:6789;x.x.x.x:6789
