+From 5d77d05f29b7589c801c8980aa438854dbb3b7ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

+Subject: [PATCH] Add backend checks to skip Ceph init for NetApp storage
+
+Introduce conditional logic to skip Ceph initialization when using
+NetApp backends (file, cinder, or pvc).
+The script now prints an informational message and only runs the Ceph
+bootstrap when the backend is rbd.
