Proxmox: Removing CephFS pool

# Note to self…
# Messing around with proxmox lab

Case:
1. create a cephfs
which will create : under Name : CephFS , under Data Pool : cephfs_data , under Metadata pool : cephfs_metada
2. adding metaservers
3. destroying metaservers
Issue:
– Unable to delete “cephfs_data” or “cephfs_metada” due to “cephfs” is still in use. eventhouh metaservers were destroyed.
tried:
– readding metaservers … —-> did not work.
– use command : ceph fs rm cephfs —- > did not work
all MDS daemons must be inactive/failed before removing filesystem

Solution:
– ceph mds stat
– ceph fs fail cephfs
– ceph fs rm cephfs
now you can go to GUI and see that “cephfs” is gone.
you can delete the : “cephfs_data” or “cephfs_metada”
