This has been my experience with ceph as well. Hell, the documented setup commands for Debian didn't even work out of the box.
I also agree with everyone that gentoo was probably not a great choice, but ceph doesn't even seem production ready unless you have a dedicated team just to manage it.
- cullenking 9y agoPart time sysadmin here (founder, so biz duties, dev duties, PM and product duties, so not a ton of time for sysadmin stuff) and I've had no major problems with ceph. Had some performance issues but figured out how to tune scrubs appropriately for my workload, and found out the hard way that prosumer SSD do not make good journal devices. I run a three node 18 osd ceph cluster and it's been no problem. I may eat my words when I do a rolling upgrade from Firefly to jewel (multiple versions) but not dreading that process much. I don't understand why people are complaining about docs here. The docs are good. Read them, read config options, read until you understand what config options actually do. Passively watch the mailing list. I think expecting to run your own petabyte capable storage cluster without a little effort is a bit misguided...
