MDS

I wonder if its possible to add a MDS to a PetaSAN cluster. I am trying to do it but it tells me that I need to gather keys from the monitor, when I do that it tells me that "key for client.admin exist but cap mds does not match"

 

I think it would be interesting to have CephFS so I can also use ceph as a NFS server, but in order to do that I need to create at least 1 MDS, would it be possible to do that?

I could totally map a rbd disk and serve that as NFS, but the interesting point would be to have a multiple server NFS cluster, all controled and managed by CephFS. If I do that as a block device rbd imagen I could have one NFS server but adding more servers could end in a concurrency problem thats why I need a ceph integrated FileSystem

I am sorry but we really have not put any time in MDS so it will be difficult to offer advice.
