Thanks for the response, John.
Sorry, I should have been a bit clearer. Let us assume that a user puts a file into the object store via
rados put test-object-1 testfile.txt --pool=data, will that same file be accessible via CephFS?

Hi,
I’m not having much luck with my proof-of-concept Ceph deployment, so I’ll just ask the question here.
Does Ceph provide multiprotocol access to the same file system like Isilon’s OneFS (CIFS, NFS, Swift, HDFS) and, to a lesser extent, NetApp’s Data ONTAP (CIFS, NFS)?
Ceph isn't responsible for the CIFS or NFS parts, you would put another layer like samba, nfs-ganesha, or kernel NFS server on top of CephFS to get that.
Ceph does have a FSAL for nfs-ganesha (e.g. [1]) and an HDFS implementation ([2]), but it's up to you to put the components together.
Cheers,
John
