Hi Ceph users and developers, Big thanks to Cory Snyder and Jonas Sterr for sharing your insights with an audience of 50+ users and developers! Cory shared some valuable troubleshooting tools and tricks that would be helpful for anyone interested in gathering good debugging info. See his presentation slides here: https://github.com/ljflores/ceph_user_dev_monthly_meeting/blob/main/user_dev... Jonas presented some ideas for how Ceph can cater more effectively to beginning Ceph users, such as highlighting "must-know" topics in our documentation (what does a mon/mgr/mds service do, how to create a pool, how to integrate new disks, etc.) See his presentation slides here: https://github.com/ljflores/ceph_user_dev_monthly_meeting/blob/main/user_dev... If you'd like to be an upcoming speaker, we invite you to submit a focus topic to this Google form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdboBhxVoBZoaHm8xSmeBoemuXoV_rmh4vJ... See you all next month! - Laura On Tue, Sep 19, 2023 at 1:07 PM Laura Flores <lflores@redhat.com> wrote:
