My customer has configured a dedup disklib. The shared mount path is a directory in a filesystem working on ceph layer. One night he found a lot of jobs waiting because the library was open for jobs but did not write data to disk. There was an unknown error on the ceph layer and a reboot of nodes solve this issue. The point is that the library was online and did not went offline during the “ceph error”. Customer reach the maximum limit of jobs and new partial important backup jobs could not start. Now we analyzed what happened.
My question here:Is ceph supported as target of a disklib.
In BOL I found entries about kubernetes, S3 connection etc. but nothing about using it as mountpath in a filesystem. I know that ceph supports block, file and object level.
Thanks in advance for your answers
