Description

Ceph block devices can provide the root storage during early boot. Administrators use this hook for systems where the root filesystem lives on RBD instead of a local disk.

It is boot storage infrastructure, not a Ceph administration console. Cluster reachability, credentials, and network timing are critical because startup depends on them.
