[ceph-users] Re: CephFS - objects in default data pool

I have a query about https://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/cephfs/createfs/: “The data pool used to create the file system is the “default” data pool and the location for storing all inode backtrace information, used for hard link management and disaster recovery. For this reason, all inodes created in CephFS have at least one object in the default data pool.” This does not match my experience (nautilus servers, nautlius FUSE client or Centos 7 kernel client). I have a cephfs with a replicated top-level pool and a directory set to use erasure coding with setfattr, though I also did the same test using the subvolume commands with the same result. "Ceph df detail" shows no objects used in the top level pool, as shown in https://gist.github.com/pcass-epcc/af24081cf014a66809e801f33bcb535b (also displayed in-line below)

It would be useful if indeed clients didn’t have to write to the top-level pool, since that would mean we could give different clients permission only to pool-associated subdirectories without giving everyone write access to a pool with data structures shared between all users of the filesystem.
