No, The only way you have is to configure cinder to manage ceph pool or in alternative you have to deploy an iscsi gateway, no other ways are available at the moment. So you can't use rbd directly. Luca Il dom 27 mag 2018, 16:54 Leo David <leoalex@gmail.com> ha scritto:
Thank you Luca, At the moment i would try the cinder storage provider, since we already have a proxmox cluster directly connecting to ceph. The problem is that I just could not find a straight way to do this. ie: Specify the ceph monitors and ceph pool to connect to. Can oVirt directly connect to ceph monitors ? How the configuration should be done if so ? Thank you very much !

Hello,
Yes, using cinder or through iscsi gateway.
For a simpler setup i suggest the second option.

Hello everyone, I am new to ovirt and very impressed of its features. I would like to levereage on our existing ceph cluster to provide rbd images for vm hdds, is this possible to achieve ?

While it's certainly not ideal, of the available options I prefer cephfs. You get full functionality unlike going through cinder and I wouldn't trust the new iscsi gateway functionality for any kind of redundant gateway usage yet. Direct native rbd access would certainly be preferred but unfortunately I just don't see it coming. Once upon a time there was hope but then the cinder bandaid arrived and that pretty much killed it.

Hi, As per the folowing documents, i seems that there are production implementations using oVirt / CephFS mounted as local posix storage. https://indico.cern.ch/event/567550/contributions/2627178/attachments/151061... Any feedback or experience on pros/cons noticed in time ? There's a plan in my infrastructure to use existing cephfs for oVirt and I would like to make an ideea about some users experience. Thank you very much ! Leo On Tue, May 29, 2018, 21:39 Jeff Bailey <bailey@cs.kent.edu> wrote:

Hi, Any thoughts on these ? Any recomandations or tunnings need to be done for CephFS in order to deal with oVirt storage domains ? Thanks, Leo On Sat, Aug 18, 2018, 11:44 Leo David <leoalex@gmail.com> wrote:
