Hello,

Yes that's no problem. I'm using that configuration for some time now. 
Just generate a config with multiple OSD clauses with the same node/host.

With the newer ceph version mkcephfs is smart enough to detect the osd's 
on the same node and will generate a crushmap whereby the objects get 
replicated to different nodes.

I didn't see any impact on the performance (if you have enough 
processing power, because you need more of that).

I wanted to use just a few OSD's per node with mdraid, so I could use 
RAID6. This way I could swap a faulty disk without bringing the node 
down. But I couldn't get it stable with mdraid.

Stefan
