Re: Infernalis upgrade breaks when journal on separate partition

In my case one server was also non-GPT installed and in /usr/sbin/ceph-disk I've added line:
os.chmod(os.path.join(path,'journal'), 0777) after line 1926.

I know that it's very ugly and shouldn't be made on production, but I had no time to search for proper way to fix this.

Well, it seems I spoke to soon.  Not sure what logic the udev rules use

This is handled by the UUIDs of the GPT partitions, and since you're using
MS-DOS partition tables it won't work correctly.  I would recommend switching to
GPT partition tables if you can.
I'm not comfortable with switching from MS-DOS to GPT disklabels on a
running production server, and nothing in the Ceph docs at the time
mentioned that GPT was a requirement on the journal disks.

Switching to GPT isn't toggling an option, it'd require resizing
partitions (some of these are xfs; can't be shrunk to my knowledge) and
moving stuff around to allow for an additional EFI boot partition,
possibly changes to boot firmware settings and bootloaders too.

I'll look into a udev rule for our particular case and see how I go.
