Hello, everyone!

I have a few questions related to the CephFS part of Ceph:

   - is it production ready?


   - can multiple CephFS be created on the same cluster? The CephFS creation
   <http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/cephfs/createfs/> page describes how
   to create a CephFS using (at least) two pools, but the mounting
   <http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/cephfs/kernel/> page does not refer to
   any pool, when mounting the FS;


   - besides the pool quota
   <http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/rados/operations/pools/#set-pool-quotas>
   setting, are there any means by which a CephFS can have a quota defined? I
   have found this
   <https://wiki.ceph.com/Planning/Blueprints/Firefly/Cephfs_quota_support>
   document, which is from the Firefly release (and it seems only a draft),
   but no other references on the matter.


   - this <http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/man/8/mount.ceph/> page refers
   to 'mounting only a part of the namespace' -- what is the namespace
   referred in the page?


   - can a CephFS be mounted simultaneously from multiple clients?


   - what would be the recommended way of creating system users on a
   CephFS, if a quota is needed for each user? create a pool for each user? or?


In order to understand better my questions, my use-case would be the
following:

   - create a cluster from multiple OSDs (at least 20);
   - create 4 pools on it - p1-4;
   - create a CephFS from pools p1 and p2 and mount it in /opt/fs1;
   - create a CephFS from pools p3 and p4 and mount it in /opt/fs2;
   - create some quota defined folders for user's home directories, in
   /opt/fs1 and /opt/fs2;


Thank you very much!
Regards,
Bogdan
