You can and **should** mount these file systems on your laptop or development machine. This reduces load on some shared machines, like [[services:​teuthology|teuthology]],​ and usually provides faster access depending on your client or network. However, for everyday use, you may prefer to access CephFS from a machine co-located with the other lab infrastructure,​ such as a [[:​devplayground|Developer Playground]] machine, where OSD latency/​bandwidth will be optimal.

 +There is a "​home"​ file system which hosts the home directories of users of teuthology and potentially other development nodes. Its access is restricted to administrators.
