| - | The 12TB were added to so we can say we're testing on drives larger than 8TB. | + | |

| + | ==== Networking ==== | ||
| + | Initially, I wanted to have the 1Gb interface cabled on VLAN100 and the 25Gb interfaces cabled to VLAN101 (back.sepia.ceph.com). Up until now I have never really used VLAN101. I was able to get both NICs up, IPs assigned, and the servers could reach each other. The LRC could also reach these servers on their 25Gb/''back'' interfaces. | ||
| + | |||
| + | I added the hosts to the cluster using the ''back'' IPs. The cluster became very unhappy complaining about slow OPs. Come to find out the ivan servers couldn't get **out** from their ''back'' interfaces so the OSDs defaulted back to the 1Gb link. | ||
| + | |||
| + | I reached out to Red Hat IT to have the 25Gb network ports switched over to VLAN100. After that, I struggled to get eno1 (the 1Gb interface) to **not** come up on boot since I didn't need it anymore. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Finally I figured out<code> | ||
| + | # cat /etc/systemd/network/10-eno1.network | ||
| + | [Match] | ||
| + | Name=eno1 | ||
| + | |||
| + | [Network] | ||
| + | DHCP=no | ||
