It's perfectly possible to deploy Ceph on a single node; just run an OSD daemon per drive, and a monitor daemon on a drive. You'd have to connect to it through the interfaces you're interested in. -Greg Software Engineer #42 @ http://inktank.com | http://ceph.com _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
