It worries me that it is unable to find a uuid for the device. This is important because paths like /dev/sdf1 are ephemeral and can change after a reboot. The uuid is found by running the following: blkid -s PARTUUID -o value /dev/sdf1 If that is not returning anything, then ceph-volume will probably not be able to ensure this device is brought up correctly. You can correct or add to anything in the JSON after a scan and rely on that, but then again without a partuuid I don't think this will work nicely > _______________________________________________ > ceph-users mailing list > ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
