Hi all! I have a few follow up questions about subtree pinning. Because the information isn't provided in the docs and couldnt find anything about it. Deployment via cephadm and using v17.2.7. 1. Can I pin directories before having multiple mds nodes? Like I have only 1 active mds and assign folder App2 to rank 1. 2. Is there already a feature request for pinning directories via the dashboard? Again, I couldn't find a request. 3. I believe in the past you needed to remove the manual pins before an upgrade, is this still the case? Best regards, Sake

Hi!

As I'm reading through the documentation about subtree pinning, I was wondering if the following is possible.

We've got the following directory structure. / /app1 /app2 /app3 /app4

Can I pin /app1 to MDS rank 0 and 1, the directory /app2 to rank 2 and finally /app3 and /app4 to rank 3?

I would like to load balance the subfolders of /app1 to 2 (or 3) MDS servers.

Best regards, Sake _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@ceph.io To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@ceph.io
