Hi, I'm doing a fresh install of ceph 0.83 (src build) to an Ubuntu 14.04 VM using ceph-deploy 1.59. Everything goes well until the osd creation, which fails to start with a journal open error. The steps are shown below (ceph is the deploy target host): (ceph1) $ uname -a Linux ceph1 3.13.0-32-generic #57-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 15 03:51:08 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux (ceph1) $ ceph -v ceph version 0.83-399-gf77449c (f77449cb4bc6dff36264af6983d345bab3b95c81) $ ceph-deploy --version 1.5.9 $ ceph-deploy -v new ceph1 $ vi ceph.conf $ cat ceph.conf [global] fsid = 624d6d49-c090-4bfe-a71d-a54b7e13c037 mon_initial_members = ceph1 mon_host = 192.168.122.21 auth_cluster_required = cephx auth_service_required = cephx auth_client_required = cephx osd_journal_size = 2048 $ ceph-deploy -v mon create ceph1 $ ceph-deploy -v gatherkeys ceph1 $ ceph-deploy -v disk zap ceph1:/dev/vdb $ ceph-deploy -v disk zap ceph1:/dev/vdc $ ceph-deploy -v osd create ceph1:/dev/vdb:/dev/vdc ...
