What node file system with Ceph?

[Allister]

Hello.. I’m going to be building a new cluster making use of using Ceph. For the underlying file system on the nodes themselves, what is recommended? Should I use the same file system if the boot and data drives are on separate drives? Thanks!

Hi,

if you are referencing the filesystem for the ceph OSD devices ...

Ceph does not use a filesystem on its data drives.
