ObjectiveFS supports on-premise object stores such as Ceph, Cloudian, Hitachi HGST, etc. This document covers the steps to set up your ObjectiveFS filesystem with an on-premise object store.
Filesystem

Create your filesystem (one-time only)
$ sudo mount.objectivefs create <your filesystem name>
Passphrase (for objectstore://<filesystem>): <your passphrase>
Verify passphrase (for objectstore://<filesystem>): <your passphrase>
Mount your filesystem
Mount your filesystem on an existing empty directory, e.g. /ofs
. The ObjectiveFS process will run in the background.
$ sudo mkdir /ofs
$ sudo mount.objectivefs <your filesystem name> /ofs
Passphrase (for objectstore://<filesystem>): <your passphrase>
[Optional] ** Multi-server setup**
Mount this filesystem on as many servers as you wish by running steps 1 and 3 on each server after installing ObjectiveFS. Each server can read and write to the same filesystem at the same time.
