hi, we are beginners in CEPH
and we have 3 old servers in PROXMOX cluster and just CTs are there
my college wants to migrate some VMs from VMWARE cluster to PROXMOX
but these VMs are really 'hungry' they need a lot of space for data...
we don't want to invest more money in old SAN HP and we want to deploy
CEPH
so our idea is to buy
2x robust servers for CEPH with HDD
3x light servers for Ceph monitors with SSD
and deploy CEPH
1st period approx 50-100 TB
2nd period 300 TB
we already have prepared
FC 10Gbps backbone
Eth 1Gbps backbone
we have studied examples of some configurations
(Dell, 45Drives,...)
we prefer to build up CEPH cluster separated from PROXMOX cluster
and link them together to have scalable open source system and avoid
vendor-locking
BUT we do NOT have experience with CEPH
so please,
can somebody send us example of HW configuration suitable for our idea
???
