But Ceph is not a central storage. Instead, data is distributed among the nodes, so you always need to send some data over the network. There is no way to "read it directly from storage". _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com https://lists.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
