Hi Bill,

Would you be kind enough to share how your setup looks like today as we are planning to use ESXi back-ended with CEPH storage. When you tested iSCSI what were the issues you noticed ? What version of CEPH were you running then ? What iSCSI software did you use for setup ?

Regards,
Nikhil Mitra

We use VMware with Ceph, however we don't use RBD directly (we have an NFS server which has RBD volumes exported as datastores in VMware).  We did attempt iSCSI with RBD to connect to VMware but ran into stability issues (could have been the target software we were using) but have found NFS to be pretty reliable.

Hi,

Has anyone implemented using CEPH RBD with Vmware ESXi hypervisor. Just looking to use it as a native VMFS datastore to host VMDK’s. Please let me know if there are any documents out there that might point me in the right direction to get started on this. Thank you.

Regards,
Nikhil Mitra
