Ceph as Veeam Repository?

[vanderjas]

I'm aware of a few folk who are using Ceph as a repository, but curious as to the number active on here and the average size of their Ceph deployments. Am currently looking to deploy about 200Tb of Ceph to handle daily backups.

Hello and welcome to the commmunity vanderjas.

Luca Dell'Oca has covered Ceph storage deployment is his blog. Here is the link to the My adventures with Ceph Storage blog post, take a look and let us know how it goes. Cheers!

I also have at least two providers in EMEA using Ceph, with good results and pretty decent size. What information are you looking for specifically?

I have one more question regarding Ceph as a repository: can Veeam trigger the Ceph snapshot feature?

Hi,

It cannot do that out-of-the-box, but I guess you can use pre/post-job scripts for that.

Thanks!
