Thanks for the help! I wanted to give an update on the resolution to the issues I was having. I didn't realize that I had created several competing OSD specifications via dashboard . By cleaning that up, OSD creation now is working as expected. -Mike >>>>> On Tue, 23 Apr 2024 00:06:19 -0000, ceph@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx said: c> I'm trying to add a new storage host into a Ceph cluster (quincy c> 17.2.6).
