Ubuntu Trusty for the filestore case above. You closed them all out :-(.

Trusty ships an older blkid, so you cannot use it to get PARTUUID as
easily. It will print PART_ENTRY_UUID if you pass just a SINGLE
partition to blkid -p, which has the same content as PARTUUID.

In the one bug you stated 'ceph-volume does not support trusty because
it relies on systemd which is not in Trusty'.

I don't mind having to use Upstart to bring up the OSDs still, but I
want to have consistent creation of OSDs as I upgrade the cluster from
Trusty to Xenial/Bionic soon.

ceph-disk is also falling over in cases that previously worked in Jewel,
which is necessitating the push to ceph-volume already.

I think getting ceph-volume to work with Trusty is a good investment in
this case, at least for creating the OSDs.
