Ok,
so if I understand correctly your opinion: if you cannot choiche
the kernel then you'll sacrifice immediatly the kernel-rbd.
I was at the same opinion but i'm still harvesting opinion.
Can you tell me if by using nbd-rbd I'm not losing any features?
I just cannot understand if nbd is a sort of "virtualized driver"
that use ceph under a less-featured-standardized driver or if
kernel and nbd differ only (assuming it's compared with last
kernel) just for speed reason.
Thanks Turner for any further info!

If you have no control over what kernel the clients
are going to use, then I wouldn't even consider using the kernel
driver for the clients. For me, I would do anything to maintain
the ability to use the object map which would require the 4.9
kernel to use with the kernel driver. Because of this and
similar improvements to ceph that the kernel is requiring newer
and newer versions to utilize, I've become a strong proponent of
utilizing the fuse, rgw, and librados/librbd client options to
keep my clients in feature parity with my cluster's ceph
version.
Not all
server are real centOS servers.
Some of them are dedicated distribution locked at 7.2 with
locked kernel
fixed at 3.10.
Which as far as I can understand need CRUSH_TUNABLES2 and not
even 3!

So what are you suggest to sacrifice?
Kernel-RBD or CRUSH_TUNABLE > 2?
