Manually flush SSD cache

This article describes the following topics

  • Ceph pool has reach the full ratio at ~=60%, by default it will automatically flush the data into HDD pool.
  • But, in some production case, the incoming data/IO and the process of flushing data are stacked togather; It will cause a loop at 60% flushing data and accepting incoming data.
  • It will create a consistent IOPS for a long period, So we must manually flush the Data with command.
