Course Outline

Outline for this course

Prepare for Red Hat Ceph Storage
Identify challenges faced by traditional storage and explain how Ceph addresses them.
Deploy Red Hat Ceph Storage
Deploy and expand the storage capacity of a new Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.
Configure Red Hat Ceph Storage
Manage how Ceph stores data with pools, configure Red Hat Ceph Storage using its configuration file, and configure users for Ceph clients that may access the Ceph storage cluster.
Provide block storage with RBD
Configure Ceph to provide block storage for clients by using RADOS block devices (RBDs).
Provide object storage with RADOSGW
Configure Ceph to provide object storage for clients by using a RADOS gateway (RADOSGW or RGW).
Provide file storage with CephFS
Configure Ceph to provide file storage for clients using the Ceph Filesystem (CephFS).
Configure the CRUSH map
Adjust the CRUSH map—which controls how data is stored, replicated, and distributed across OSDs in the Ceph cluster—in order to optimize resiliency and performance.
Manage and update the cluster maps
Explain how the monitor and OSD maps are managed in order to maintain cluster operation, quorum, and consistency.
Manage a Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster
Check Ceph cluster status, troubleshoot Ceph daemon problems, and upgrade Ceph software.
Tune and troubleshoot Red Hat Ceph Storage
Identify the key performance metrics for a Ceph cluster and use them to help tune and troubleshoot the operating system and Ceph software for optimal performance.
