Hi all,
how can I map one ceph rbd to a bunch of different VMs in proxmox.
I would need a shared storage and would like to use ocfs2 for that, once I got the rbd mapped.
cephfs from the proxmox host is not an option, neither is glusterfs between the vms nor drbd.
TIA!
 
Simply use the same disk config for the other VM (you need to edit the VM config manually).
 
There is one thing you should be aware of: Each disk is "owned" by a single VM (the vmid is in the disk name). So If you delete the owner VM, the disk will be removed.
