We need to make several decisions about how to install the new ceph cluster.
These decisions include:
[x] Which version of ceph should we target? - **Quincy** - That's [[https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/releases/quincy/#v17-2-5-quincy|17.2.5]] at the time of writing.
[x] Should we use packages or containers? **Packages**
[x] Where exactly do we get our Ceph builds? **download.ceph.com**
[] What installation and bootstrapping method will we use? i.e.
* Existing puppet manifests: [[https://github.com/wikimedia/puppet/tree/production/modules/ceph|modules/ceph]]
* Import/adapt third-party puppet module: https://opendev.org/puppet-ceph
* ~~`cephadm`~~
* ~~`ceph-deploy`~~
* ~~[[https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/install/index_manual/#install-manual|Manul installation]]~~
[] What will the pool names be?
[] What will the replication settings and/or erasure coding settings be for the pools?
[] How many placement groups should be configured for each pool?
I will add any other questions here as I think of them.
