Hi,
I would like to mount an external CephFS, where the pool name is not cephfs.
With this command, i can mount it manually without any issue:
As you can see, the auth username is 'proxmoxfs', and the cephfs fs name also 'proxmoxfs'.
First i created the /etc/pve/priv/ceph/proxmoxfs.keyring file with the necessary content (client name and the key) and afteri tried to add it via the gui, it generate this entry in storage.cfg:
It not worked, and i see in dmesg this:
Ok, the filename was wrong, i renamed my file to that, but it also not working.
After that i checkthe the PVE/Storage/CephFSPlugin.pm source, and in the cephfs_mount part, there is no option for custom pool name (mds_namespace).
Ok, no problem, i can overwrite this in /etc/ceph/ceph.conf with client_mds_namespace parameter.
Manual mounting now working without the mds_namespace option. But looks like from proxmox it not working.
I see only this in dmesg:
And i ran out of ideas. Off course, there is the workaround to mount it via fstab and add to proxmox as a folder.
And rename pool to cephfs unfornatelly not a solution, because there is a cephfs pool what used for kubernetes.
