Good Morning,
I have a production Ceph cluster at the University I work at, which runs brilliantly. However, I'd like your advice on the best way of sharing CIFS / SMB from Ceph. So far I have three ideas: 1. ??Use a server as a head node, with an RBD mapped, then just export with samba 2. Use a platform like OpenStack / KVM to host VMs that reside on Ceph RBDs - and use those to export filesystems (similar to 1.) 3. Use a the S3 functionality of the RADOS gateway in conjunction with tools like SoftNAS (https://www.softnas.com/wp/)? They all seem a little inefficient though, especially the 2nd option. Any help would be welcomed, I think it's an interesting problem. Kind Regards, Alex.
