#1628 Nodes with multi disk support
Closed: Fixed with Explanation a month ago by arrfab. Opened a month ago by pranavprakash.

This request is specific to https://jenkins-nfs-ganesha.apps.ocp.cloud.ci.centos.org/. We are working on enhancing the CI and as part of this, the tests are now been planned to run on ceph backend. For a ceph cluster, we would need to have multi disks nodes (for the ceph osd's). Do we have current support for multi disk nodes? If not, can we have the provision for the same, because this will really help in easier integration of ceph.

Well, @ndevos already asked for that in 2022 and it was implemented : https://lists.centos.org/hyperkitty/list/ci-users@lists.centos.org/message/VHVZKNJTZCOIETG446ZGSFBGTGSOGH4I/
So you already have a /dev/xvdb device that you can use for that purpose.

Can you elaborate on why that requested feature doesn't work for you anymore ?

PS : also documented back then on official doc for duffy/ci : https://docs.centos.org/centos-sig-guide/ci/#duffy-ephemeral-bare-metalvirtual-machines-provider

The EC2 instances are also provisioned with a second EBS volume (unconfigured) that you can then init the way you want (requested initially by Ceph for their own testing)

No feedback but we know that EC2 instances have two disks so closing for now but happy to discuss more if needed
