nfs-ganesha, subvolumes and subtree checking?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hey all,

When I moved my file server shares to CephFS, I set each share on its own CephFS. The reason was this comment in the nfs-ganesha example config:

    # Note that FSAL_CEPH does not support subtree checking, so there is
    # no way to validate that a filehandle presented by a client is
    # reachable via an exported subtree.
    #
    # For that reason, we just export "/" here.

Now, this is fine for low numbers of shares, but as they have grown it feels a bit overkill to be creating two or more new pools (metadata + data + sometimes another EC data) for each share. Tuning the PG numbers for those pools is also kind of a pain.

I'm wondering, would using a subvolume for the share provide the needed security isolation?

Best,
Davíð
