I ran this as a test:
"ceph-deploy osd prepare ceph01-osd02:sdb:/mnt/"
And output is:
"[ceph01-osd02][WARNIN] ceph-disk: Error: Journal /mnt/ is neither a
block device nor regular file"
It would be great if we could only provide a directory as journal, and
when ceph-deploy detects this, it would name the journal file as the OSD
it creates in said directory.
After the above try I named the journal manually and got this output:
-4 2.71999 host ceph01-osd02
2 2.71999 osd.2 up 1.00000 1.00000
which indicates the newly prepared drive is named "osd.2" so ceph-deploy
could name the journal "/mnt/osd.2" when only applying
"ceph-deploy osd prepare ceph01-osd02:sdb:/mnt/" instead of an error
message which says "Journal /mnt/ is neither a block device nor regular
file".
It would make it alot easier and less of a pain to name the journal file
if going with journal-file and not -dev with ceph-deploy.
I created a Feature req here http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/13073 but it
would be nice to discuss it.
