Hi
Someone here will probably lay out a detailed answer but to get you started,
All the details for the osd are in the xfs partitions, mirror a new USB key and change ip etc and you should be able to recover.
If the journal is linked to a /dev/sdx, make sure it's in the same spot as it was before..
All the best of luck

Hello,
Had an interesting issue today.
My OSD hosts are booting off a USB key which, you guessed it has a root partition on there. All OSDs are mounted. My USB key failed on one of my OSD hosts, leaving the data on OSDs inaccessible to the rest of my cluster. I have multiple monitors running other OSD hosts where data can be recovered to. However I’m wondering if there’s a way to “restore” / “rebuild” the ceph install that was on this host without having all OSDs resync again.
Lesson learned = don’t use USB boot/root drives. However, now just looking at what needs to be done once the OS and Ceph packages are reinstalled.
Thank you.
