This sounds surprising. Stopping a ceph-osd target should not do
anything with the devices. All that 'activate' does when called in
ceph-volume is to ensure that
the devices are available and mounted in the right places so that the
OSD can start.

If you are experiencing a problem stopping an OSD that can't be
started again, then something is going on. I would urge you to create
a ticket with as many details as you can
at http://tracker.ceph.com/projects/ceph-volume/issues/new
