I have 7 servers, each containing 60 x 6TB drives in jbod mode. When I first started, I only activated a couple drives on 3 nodes as Ceph OSDs. Yesterday, I went to expand to the remaining nodes as well as prepare and activate all the drives.
ceph-disk prepare worked just fine. However, ceph-disk activate-all managed to only activate 33 drives and failed on the rest. This is consistent all 7 nodes (existing and newly installed). At the end of the day, I have 33 Ceph OSDs activated per server and can't activate any more. I did have to bump up the pg_num and pgp_num on the pool in order to accommodate the drives that did activate. I don't know if having a low pg number during the mass influx of OSDs caused an issue or not within the pool. I don't think so because I can only set the pg_num to a maximum value determined by the number of known OSDs. But maybe you have to expand slowly, increase pg's, expand osds, increase pgs in a slow fashion. I certainly have not seen anything to suggest a magic "33/node limit", and I've seen references to servers with up to 72 Ceph OSDs on them.
I then attempted to activate individual ceph osd's and got the same set of errors. I even wiped a drive, re-ran `ceph-disk prepare` and `ceph-disk activate` to have it fail in the same way.
