Does people using either official linstor addon or the unofficial one (ping @kvaps) has feedback between one big VG with dozen of disks of one VG per disk (if that’s what one storage pool per physical backing device means).
I’d like to help you on your journey with LINSTOR.
We have community members that uses either official or unofficial plugin. That depends on what you are looking for.
Official driver is supported by us, updated periodically and improving on every release.
When it comes to the storage layout, if you have 10 SSD on each node, my choice will be along with the official statement. One storage pool per physical backing device will give you the advantage of confining failure domains to a single storage device.
For now, I did not definitely choose between official and unofficial plugins, I started with the unofficial one after seeing the webinar and the blog post.
Do you have any concerns about this setup?
So, if I understand correctly, 1 SSD == 1 PV == 1VG == 1 storage-pool
So, a resource-group can spaw on multiple storage pools ?
One thing we want is the use of snapshot for TM clone but I’m wondering how it’s working with one storage-pool per SSD.
