What's your goal here? If the switches are completely isolated from each other than Ceph is going to have trouble (it expects a fully connected network), so I think the answer to your question I "no". But maybe you mean something else and I'm just missing it. :) -Greg -- Software Engineer #42 @ http://inktank.com | http://ceph.com
