mount ceph storage as extra disk in vm

[Smarti]

How can you mount some extra ceph storage in a linux vm? I'm sure this must easy but I can't see it right now!

Ceph is an object store and therefore not directly mounted. You can use RBD images and mount those (as in KVM/LXC disks) or use cephfs as a POSIX filesystem and mount that.

My GUI blindness I guess! I can now see that there's an add disk option for a VM....
