Hi,
Will k=4 and m=2 achieve what I want? I know no data loss with m=2 when 2 OSDs are down, but is the cluster still functioning/writable in that case?
the default min_size for EC pools is k+1, so no, in above case your pool would become inactive.
Or m=3 is required to keep cluster functioning while 2 OSDs are down?
I would recommend that, yes. You could decrease min_size to k with m=2, of course, but it's a safety risk which should only be considered in the worst case.
In case m=3, what would be the reasonable k? Overhead 1.5 or 1.6 is efficient enough for me. So, k=5 or k=6?
I would go with k=6, you get a little more storage efficiency out of it compared to k5m3. Regards, Eugen Zitat von Tony Liu <tonyliu0592@hotmail.com>:
Hi,
With Reef, I'd like to keep the cluster functioning while 2 OSDs are down. The cluster has more than 10 nodes, each of which has 64x 2.5G threads, 256GB memory, 24x NVMe drives and 2x 25GB networking.

Any comments is welcome.
