Hello Guys, I wonder about a method for providing bare-metal hosts with an access to RBD volumes. The most obvious solution is krbd. Unfortunately, it has a substantial feature gap in comparison to librbd [1][2]. exclusive-lock seems to be the basic dependency that should be satisfied to even start thinking about the rest. Is someone working on this feature? What are the plans in general? I also saw that Jewel brought a new interesting concept: rbd-nbd. It was mentioned in the pull request [2] that an internal testing shows performance comparable with krbd. Could someone share a bit more detail in that matter?
