Administering Ceph Block Device mirroring

As a storage administrator, you can perform a range of tasks to manage and maintain the Ceph Block Device (RBD) mirroring environment.

These tasks include:

  • Viewing information about storage cluster peers.
  • Add or remove a storage cluster peer.
  • Getting mirroring status for a pool, image and group.
  • Enabling mirroring on a pool, image and group.
  • Disabling mirroring on a pool, image and group.
  • Delaying block device replication.
  • Promoting and demoting an image and group.

These tasks help ensure smooth replication operations and support failover and recovery scenarios in multi-site deployments.
