I'm a bit confused but will be researching more into this . I may have messed up my dev env really bad initially, so maybe that's why it didnt previously work. > 20d41af95386 quay.io/ceph/ceph@sha256:0560b16bec6e84345f29fb6693cd2430884e6efff16a95d5bdd0bb06d7661c45 -n osd.1 -f --set... 16 minutes ago Up 16 minutes ago ceph-51d65c78-9713-11ed-b841-c7c07153e51c-osd-1 > > 5f836b90b5b2 quay.io/ceph/ceph@sha256:0560b16bec6e84345f29fb6693cd2430884e6efff16a95d5bdd0bb06d7661c45 -n osd.2 -f --set... 16 minutes ago Up 16 minutes ago ceph-51d65c78-9713-11ed-b841-c7c07153e51c-osd-2 Sent with [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/) secure email. ------- Original Message ------- On Thursday, January 19th, 2023 at 9:56 PM, Guillaume Abrioux <gabrioux@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Seccentral, > > How did you run that `ceph-volume raw prepare` command exactly?
