Happy New Year Ceph Community!
I'm in the process of figuring out RBD mirroring with Ceph and having a really tough
time with it. I'm trying to set up just one way mirroring right now on some test
systems (baremetal servers, all Debian 9). The first cluster is 3 nodes, and the 2nd
cluster is 2 nodes (not worried about a properly performing setup, just the functionality
of RBD mirroring right now). The purpose is to have a passive failover ceph cluster in a
separate DC. Mirroring seems like the best solution, but if we can't get it working,
we'll end up resorting to a scheduled rsync which is less than ideal. I've
followed several guides, read through a lot of documentation, and nothing has worked for
me thus far. If anyone can offer some troubleshooting help or insight into what I might
have missed in this setup, I'd greatly appreciate it! I also don't fully
understand the relationship between images and pools and how you're supposed to
configure statically sized images for a pool that has a variable amount of data, but
that's a question for afterwards, I think :)
Once RBD mirroring is set up, the mirror test image status shows as down+unknown:
On ceph1-dc2:
rbd --cluster dc1ceph mirror pool status fs_data --verbose
health: WARNING
images: 1 total
1 unknown
mirror_test:
global_id: c335017c-9b8f-49ee-9bc1-888789537c47
state: down+unknown
description: status not found
last_update:
Here are the commands I run using ceph-deploy on both clusters to get everything up and
running (run from a deploy directory on the first node of each cluster). The clusters are
created at the same time, and rbd setup commands are only run after the clusters are up
and healthy, and the fs_data pool is created.

I also tried running the ExecStart command manually, substituting in different values for
the parameters, and just never got it to work. If more info is needed, please don’t
hesitate to ask. Thanks in advance!
