Thank you Gregor for the reply. I have read that page. It does say what a Crush map is and
how it’s used by monitors and OSDs, but does not say how or where the map is stored in the
system. Is it replicated on all OSD, vis a distributed hidden pool? Is it stored on the
local linux disk of the host operating system on which the monitor daemons run?

The CRUSH map makes up the so called "Cluster Map", for which the Ceph Monitors
maintain a master copy. This is precisely why you have multiple monitors - for high
availability in case a monitor goes down.
This is all explained quite well in the architecture documentation:
https://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/architecture/#cluster-map.

The metadata that tells CEPH where all data is located, my understanding is the crush
map. Where is it stored, is it redundantly distributed so as to protect from node failure?
What safeguards the critical cluster metadata?
