Working ISCSI target guide

hi.
there may be 2 ways.  but cephfs is not product-ready.
1. you can use a file stored in cephfs as a target.
2.there is a rbd.ko which map a rbd device as a block device, which you can assign to target.
 
i have not tested yet.
 
good luck

One other question, if you are going to be using Ceph as a storage system for KVM virtual machines does it even matter if you use ISCSI or not?

 

Meaning that if you are just going to use LVM and have several hypervisors sharing that same VG then using ISCSI isn?t really a requirement unless you are using a Hypervisor like ESXi which only works with ISCSI/NFS correct?

Does anyone have a guide or re-producible method of getting multipath ISCSI working infront of ceph? Even if it just means having two front-end ISCSI targets each with access to the same underlying Ceph volume?

 

This seems like a super popular topic.

 

Thanks,
