Hi Victor, that's true for Ceph releases prior to Octopus. The latter has some improvements in this area.. There is pending backport PR to fix that in Nautilus as well: https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/33889 AFAIR this topic has been discussed in this mailing list multiple times.

Hi,
I'm using Intel Optane disks to provide WAL/DB capacity for my Ceph cluster (which is part of Proxmox - for VM hosting).
I've read that WAL/DB partitions only use either 3GB, or 30GB, or 300GB - due to the way that RocksDB works.
Is this true?
My current partition for WAL/DB is 145 GB - does this mean that 115Gb of that will be permanently wasted?
Is this behaviour documented somewhere, or is there some background, so I can understand a bit more about how it works?
Thanks, Victor _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@ceph.io To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@ceph.io
