Despite using different keys, the 2 sets of clients in different OpenStack clusters would require the same capabilities on the shared pools, which widens the blast radius a bit too far for me, I think (unless there were also a capability to restrict the sets of clients' keys to specific namespaces within the shared pools similar to the caps given out to CephFS clients) Thanmks, Paul > > Regards, > > Matthew > > -- ******************* Paul Browne Research Computing Platforms University Information Services Roger Needham Building JJ Thompson Avenue University of Cambridge Cambridge United Kingdom E-Mail: pfb29@xxxxxxxxx Tel: 0044-1223-746548 ******************* _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
