Hi, i have done a short look into RBD + iSCSI, and i found TGT + librbd.
https://github.com/fujita/tgt http://stgt.sourceforge.net/ i didn't take a deeper look into it but i like to test it in the next monthor so, it looks easy to me https:// github.com/fujita/tgt/blob/master/doc/README.rbd cheers Ansgar 2013/3/16 Bond, Darryl <db...@nrggos.com.au> > I have a small 3 node ceph cluster with 6 OSDs on each node > I would like to re-export some rbd images via LIO. > Is it recommended to run RBD/LIO on one of the cluster nodes? > > Preliminary tests show that it works fine.
