But there is no need to have it the same number. You should not care about this. Having said that, last time I checked it is just using correct number. This is from old manual I have, where you can set the number sudo -u ceph ceph-osd -i 14 --mkfs --osd-uuid _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
