I think the rbd CLI is a good fit for this use-case. Especially when you consider that the CSI driver should eventually support not only krbd, but nbd and tcmu-based block device drivers. These are all being unified via new "rbd device map --device-type <XYZ>" / "rbd device unmap" CLI commands to provide a unified interface [1]. > - use REST API client for rbd status, rbd create and rm > > Questions: Does current Ceph REST server support these rbd calls? Has > anybody already worked on Golang client? Not to my knowledge. Assuming you keep the rbd CLI which will bring with it the librados2 and librbd1 shared libraries, any reason to not just directly use / expand the Ceph golang API [2]? > I found some early work on python client [1] but so far no work on > golang client.
