I might be wrong but the object size is 4M in ceph so this might be the case also. But yeah, on the lower level of data storing I'm not familiar.

If in doubt don't click links nor open attachments! ________________________________ hello! I'm trying to understand how Bluestore cooperates with RBD image clones, so my test is simple 1. create an image (2G) and fill with data 2. create a snapshot 3. protect it 4. create a clone of the image 5. write a small portion of data (4K) to clone 6. check how it changed and if just 4K are used to prove CoW allocated new extent instead of copying out snapped data. Unfortunately it occurs that at least rbd du reports that 4M was changed and the clone consumes 4M of data instead of expected 4K... ''' rbd du rbd/clone1 NAME PROVISIONED USED clone1 2 GiB 4 MiB ''' How can I trace/prove Bluestore CoW really works in this case, and prevent copying the rest of the 4M stripe like Filestore did ? p.s tested on Luminous/Octopus, ssd devices, min_alloc_size: 16k, block_size: 4k best regards! -- Pawel S. _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] ________________________________ This message is confidential and is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).
