Simplifying Ceph Management with Virtual Storage Manager (VSM)
0 likes236 views
VSM (Virtual Storage Manager) is an open source tool developed by Intel to simplify Ceph storage cluster management. It includes a controller that runs on a dedicated server and manages Ceph through agents on each Ceph node. The VSM makes it easier to deploy, maintain, and monitor Ceph clusters, and also integrates with OpenStack for storage orchestration.

- 2. 2 VSM (Virtual Storage Manager) is an open source Python based Ceph management tool developed by Intel and announced in 2014 at the OpenStack Paris summit. It is a management tool for administrators to lower the barrier for adoption of Ceph. VSM Controller - Runs on dedicated server (or server instance) - Manages Ceph clusters through VSM agents - Connects to OpenStack Nova* controller via SSH VSM Agent - Runs on every Ceph server - Relays server configuration & status information to VSM controller VSM - Virtual Storage Manager for Ceph* Creates, Manages, and Monitors Ceph* Clusters
