  • Some experience with storage administration is recommended but not required.

Red Hat Ceph 3 (CEPH125) Training Outline

Module 1: Prepare for Red Hat Ceph Storage

  • Identify challenges faced by traditional storage and explain how Ceph addresses them.

Module 2: Deploy Red Hat Ceph Storage

  • Deploy and expand the storage capacity of a new Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster.

Module 3: 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.

Module 4: Provide block storage with RBD

  • Configure Ceph to provide block storage for clients by using RADOS block devices (RBDs).

Module 5: Provide object storage with RADOSGW

  • Configure Ceph to provide object storage for clients by using a RADOS gateway (RADOSGW or RGW).

Module 6: Provide file storage with CephFS

  • Configure Ceph to provide file storage for clients using the Ceph Filesystem (CephFS).

Module 7: 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.

Module 8: Manage and update the cluster maps

  • Explain how the monitor and OSD maps are managed in order to maintain cluster operation, quorum, and consistency.

Module 9: Manage a Red Hat Ceph Storage cluster

  • Check Ceph cluster status, troubleshoot Ceph daemon problems, and upgrade Ceph software.

Module 10: 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.

Module 11: Integrate Red Hat Ceph Storage with OpenStack

  • Configure an OpenStack cloud to use Ceph to provide image, block, object, and file storage.
