Deploying IBM Storage Ceph

Use this information for configuring your IBM Storage Ceph deployment.

Node pre-deployment steps
Before installing the IBM Storage Ceph cluster, be sure to fulfill all the requirements needed.
Cluster bootstrapping and service deployment with Cephadm
The cephadm utility installs and starts a single Ceph Monitor daemon and a Ceph Manager daemon for a new IBM Storage Ceph cluster on the local node where the cephadm bootstrap command is run. Use this information to bootstrap the cluster and deploy all the needed IBM Storage Ceph services in one step using a cluster specification yaml file.
Configuring IBM Storage Ceph stretch mode
Once the IBM Storage Ceph cluster is fully deployed using cephadm, use this information to configure the stretch cluster mode. The new stretch mode is designed to handle the 2-site case.
