Bucket datacenter = dc01 | Bucket room = 101 | Bucket rack = 22 | Bucket host = ceph-node-1 | Bucket osd = osd.1, osd.2, osd.3, osd.4
In the preceding example, we can see that osd.1 to osd.4 are in the node ceph-node-1, which is in rack number 22, which is in room number 101, which is in data center dc01. If osd.3 fails, and there is an on-site technician, then an administrator can quickly give the technician the previous bucket hierarchy to ...
