Waed, These are optional settings. If you specify them, Ceph will create the file system for you. If you are just performing a local install for testing purposes, you can omit the values. You'd need to have a 'devs' setting for each OSD in order for mkcephfs to build a file system for you. The default values for #osd mkfs options {fs-type} = {mkfs options} # default for xfs is "-f" #osd mount options {fs-type} = {mount options} # default mount option is "rw,noatime" are meaningless if you don't specify "devs" settings under the OSDs. If the drive for OSD data is separate from the OS drive, you'd have to create a file system anyway. Is there a reason you don't want to use mkcephfs?
