Dear All, I have deployed the latest CEPH Pacific release in my lab and started to check out the new ?stable? NFS Ganesha features. First of all I'm a bit confused which method to actually use to deploy the NFS cluster: cephadm or ceph nfs cluster create? I used "nfs cluster create" for now and noticed a minor problem in the docs. https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/cephfs/fs-nfs-exports/#cephfs-nfs The command is stated as: $ ceph nfs cluster create <clusterid> [<placement>] [--ingress --virtual-ip <ip>] while as it needs a type (cephfs) to be specified nfs cluster create <type> <clusterid> [<placement>] : Create an NFS Cluster Also I can't manage to use the --ingress --virtual-ip parameter. Every time I try to use it I get this: [root@cephboot~]# ceph nfs cluster create cephfs ec9e031a-cd10-11eb-a3c3-005056b7db1f --ingress --virtual-ip 192.168.9.199 Invalid command: Unexpected argument '--ingress' nfs cluster create <type> <clusterid> [<placement>] : Create an NFS Cluster Error EINVAL: invalid command So i just deployed a NFS cluster without a VIP. Maybe I'm missing something? What about this note in the docs:
From Pacific, the nfs mgr module must be enabled prior to use. <<
I can't find any info on how to enable it. Maybe this is already the case? ceph nfs cluster create cephfs ec9e031a-cd10-11eb-a3c3-005056b7db1f "cephnode01" This seems to be working fine. I managed to connect a CentOS 7 VM and I can access the NFS export just fine. Great stuff. For testing I tried to attach the same NFS export to a standalone ESXi 6.5 Server. This also works, but its diskspace is shown as 0 bytes: I'm not sure if this supported or I'm missing something. I could not find any clear info in the docs only some reddit posts where users mentioned that they were able to use it with VMware.
