Chapter 31. Creating a sample erasure coded pool


The simplest erasure coded pool is equivalent to RAID5 and requires at least three hosts:

$ ceph osd pool create ecpool 50 50 erasure
pool 'ecpool' created
$ echo ABCDEFGHI | rados --pool ecpool put NYAN -
$ rados --pool ecpool get NYAN -
ABCDEFGHI
Note

the 50 in pool create stands for the number of placement groups.
