Hi Rene,

Yes, cephfs is a good filesystem for concurrent writing. When using CephFS with 
ganesha you can even scale out.

It will perform better but why don't you mount CephFS inside the VM?

Kind regards,

Subject: [ceph-users] Mount CEPH-FS on multiple hosts with concurrent access to 
the same data objects?

I'm new on the list,

so a "Hello" to all! :-)

We're planning a Proxmox-Cluster. The data-center operator advised to
use a virtual machine with NFS on top of a single CEPH-FS instance to
mount the shared CEPH-FS storage on multiple hosts/VMs.

As this NFS/CEPH-FS-VM could be a bottle-neck I was wondering if CEPH-
FS is capable to manage concurrent access and locking itself.

Is it possible to mount CEPH-FS instances on multiple hosts (e.g. /srv)
 all accessing the same data objects without data-loss or dead-locks by
concurrent access?

Will this perform better than a single NFS/CEPH-FS instance (VM)?

Thanx for any hint

Renne
