Thank you all My goal is to have an SSD based Ceph ( NVME + SSD) cluster so I need to consider performance as well as reliability ( although I do realize that a performant cluster that breaks my VMware is not ideal ;-)) It appears that NFS is the safe way to do it but will it be the bottleneck

We are using the iSCSI gateway in ceph-12.2 with vsphere-6.5 as the client. It's an active/passive setup, per. LUN. We choose this solution because that's what we could get RH support for and it sticks to the "no SPOF" philosophy. Performance is ~25-30% slower then krbd mounting the same rbd
