Hi list,

I'm now reading openstack arch design and I found that it doesn't list
ceph as an option for shared storage, check below

https://docs.openstack.org/arch-design/design-compute/design-compute-storage.html

```
Choice of file system

If you want to support shared-storage live migration, you need to
configure a distributed file system.

Possible options include:

* NFS (default for Linux)
* GlusterFS
* MooseFS
* Lustre
```

As I understand, we need block storage here rather than filesystem, and
ceph is the recommended one, am I right?
