Hi - I am trying to add a new hdd to each of my 3 servers, and want to use a spare ssd partition on the servers for the db+wall. My other OSDs are set up the same way, but I can't seem to keep CEPH from creating the OSDs on the drives before I can actually create the OSD I am trying to use the commands ceph orch device zap cube.robeckert.us /dev/sda --force cephadm ceph-volume lvm create --bluestore --data /dev/sda --block.db /dev/sdc1 ceph orch device zap cube.robeckert.us /dev/sdb--force cephadm ceph-volume lvm create --bluestore --data /dev/sdb --block.db /dev/sdc2 but by the time the cephadm container is loaded, it says /dev/sda is in use, and I see a new OSD created. I did put in the #ceph orch apply osd --all-available-devices --unmanaged=true Command to tell it to not take the OSDs. Does anyone have any suggestions? Or is there a way to move the DB+WAL after the OSD is created?
