Hi, Any thoughts on these ? Any recomandations or tunnings need to be done for CephFS in order to deal with oVirt storage domains ? Thanks, Leo On Sat, Aug 18, 2018, 11:44 Leo David wrote: > Hi, > As per the folowing documents, i seems that there are production > implementations using oVirt /

Hi, As per the folowing documents, i seems that there are production implementations using oVirt / CephFS mounted as local posix storage. https://indico.cern.ch/event/567550/contributions/2627178/attachments/1510613/2355595/ACAT2017_FINAL.pdf Any feedback or experience on pros/cons noticed in

No, The only way you have is to configure cinder to manage ceph pool or in alternative you have to deploy an iscsi gateway, no other ways are available at the moment. So you can't use rbd directly. Luca Il dom 27 mag 2018, 16:54 Leo David ha scritto: > Thank you Luca, > At
