Ceph does NOT talk iSCSI nor NFS. It talks it's own protocol: RADOS You might want to look into that a bit more. Ceph is also not intended to run on just two machines. For a good Ceph cluster you need a couple of machines, but preferably over 10. You can re-export Ceph via NFS or iSCSI using a gateway, but that's outside the Ceph project. > Any help appreciated! > > Thanks! > > > > _______________________________________________ > ceph-users mailing list > ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com > -- Wido den Hollander 42on B.V.
