    cephadm installed along proxmox

    Hi, Since proxmox uses a custom setup for installing and managing ceph, does it work to do other tasks with cephadm ? I see in the dashboard that many features are unavailable due to a missing "orchestrator" and the choice is rook (k8s) or cephadm. I haven't tried to install it - afraid of...
