Create a Ceph filesystem
========================
.. tip::
The ``ceph fs new`` command was introduced in Ceph 0.84. Prior to this release,
no manual steps are required to create a filesystem, and pools named ``data`` and
``metadata`` exist by default.
The Ceph command line now includes commands for creating and removing filesystems,
but at present only one filesystem may exist at a time.
A Ceph filesystem requires at least two RADOS pools, one for data and one for metadata.
When configuring these pools, you might consider:
- Using a higher replication level for the metadata pool, as any data
loss in this pool can render the whole filesystem inaccessible.
- Using lower-latency storage such as SSDs for the metadata pool, as this
will directly affect the observed latency of filesystem operations
on clients.
Refer to :doc:`/rados/operations/pools` to learn more about managing pools. For
example, to create two pools with default settings for use with a filesystem, you
might run the following commands:
.. code:: bash
$ ceph osd pool create cephfs_data <pg_num>
$ ceph osd pool create cephfs_metadata <pg_num>
Once the pools are created, you may enable the filesystem using the ``fs new`` command:
.. code:: bash
$ ceph fs new <fs_name> <metadata> <data>
For example:
.. code:: bash
$ ceph fs new cephfs cephfs_metadata cephfs_data
$ ceph fs ls
name: cephfs, metadata pool: cephfs_metadata, data pools: [cephfs_data ]
Once a filesystem has been created, your MDS(s) will be able to enter
an *active* state. For example, in a single MDS system:
.. code:: bash
$ ceph mds stat
e5: 1/1/1 up {0=a=up:active}
Once the filesystem is created and the MDS is active, you are ready to mount
the filesystem:
- `Mount CephFS`_
- `Mount CephFS as FUSE`_
.. _Mount CephFS: ../../cephfs/kernel
.. _Mount CephFS as FUSE: ../../cephfs/fuse
