Ah, I only searched in the Ceph project. Thanks

Hi,

can you share where that comment comes from?

Sure, it's from the ceph sample config in the nfs-ganesha source:
https://github.com/nfs-ganesha/nfs-ganesha/blob/next/src/config_samples/ceph.conf#L81-L83

I can't find it in the docs or
on github. The only place I found is this Oracle guide which is for Ceph
Luminous, that is quite old:

https://docs.oracle.com/en/operating-systems/oracle-linux/ceph-storage/ceph-luminous-UsingCephStorageforOracleLinux.html

I have no idea if newer versions support subtree checking though, we've been
looking into ganesha many years ago and it didn't work for us at that time
at all. I have that on my agenda to give it another try, but I don't find
the time at the moment. Hopefully someone else has more insights for you.

Regards,
Eugen
