This section describes how to run YCSB on RADOS of Ceph.

After you start your Ceph cluster, check your cluster’s health first. You can check on the health of your cluster with the following:

ceph health

Git clone YCSB and compile:

git clone https://github.com/brianfrankcooper/YCSB.git
cd YCSB
mvn clean package

You can compile only RADOS-binding, EG:

mvn -pl com.yahoo.ycsb:rados-binding -am clean package

You can skip the test, EG:

mvn -pl com.yahoo.ycsb:rados-binding -am clean package -DskipTests

• rados.configfile

  • The path of the Ceph configuration file
  • Default value is '/etc/ceph/ceph.conf'

• rados.id

  • The user id to access the RADOS service
  • Default value is 'admin'

• rados.pool

  • The pool name to be used for benchmark
  • Default value is 'data'

You can set configurations with the shell command, EG:

./bin/ycsb load rados -s -P workloads/workloada -p "rados.configfile=/etc/ceph/ceph.conf" -p "rados.id=admin" -p "rados.pool=data" > outputLoad.txt

Load the data:

./bin/ycsb load rados -s -P workloads/workloada > outputLoad.txt

Run the workload test:

./bin/ycsb run rados -s -P workloads/workloada > outputRun.txt
