Trying to setup the Manila version of Caracal with NFS-Ganesha backend. Ganesha version 4.0 is deployed using ceph orch in a ceph cluster version 17.

Backend configuration in manila.conf
[ganesha_nfs]
driver_handles_share_servers = False
share_backend_name = ganesha_nfs
Share_driver = manila.share.drivers.cephfs.driver.CephFSDriver
cephfs_protocol_helper_type = NFS
cephfs_conf_path = /etc/ceph/ceph.conf
cephfs_auth_id = manila
cephfs_cluster_name = ceph
cephfs_filesystem_name = {{ cephfs_filesystem_name }}
cephfs_nfs_cluster_id = {{ cephfs_nfs_cluster_id }}

I see the subvolume being created in ceph
ceph fs subvolume ls <volume_name>

but no export
ceph nfs export ls <cluster_id>

what am I doing wrong? what am I missing?

in the manila-share logs I see a request to create a subvolume, but I don't see a request to create an export, for some reason manila doesn't even try to create an export
