Cloudstack ceph primary storage

Hi all,
does cloudstack support ceph remote block device as  primary storage ?
I checked documentation and I did not found any reference while ceph
documentation says that support is available from  cloudstack 4.0.
Ps
I am asking for kvm hypervisors

Regards
Ignazio

It works with 4.3 but you need to patch it manually, proper support is 
coming in v4.4.

Since CloudStack 4.0 Primary Storage using Ceph's RBD is supported.

I'd recommend at least 4.2, but when 4.3.1 comes out there are some 
fixes which fix some small bugs.

Stability wise it's just fine since that is all handled by KVM/Qemu and 
librbd.

I made some improvements in deployment times, those will go into 4.4

For now I could recommend running with Ubuntu since that has the best 
Ceph support. 14.04 (the new LTS) has all you need.

Not Wido ... but I used Ceph as primary storage on CS 4.2 and 4.3, with
KVM, it works well.  Here is a good reference of Wido's I used:-
