Bug #5283
closedCeph-deploy can't handle /dev/disk/by-* device paths
0%
Description
If you try to create a new osd with ceph-deploy using /dev/disk/by-* path instead of the /dev/* path the osd creation fails. During the creation process ceph-deploy simply adds "1" to the device name, which is absolutely fine if you are using /dev/* paths, like /dev/sda. However, if you use the /dev/disk/by-* paths you should be adding "-partN" where N is the partition number. Using /dev/disk/by-* paths is recommended if you are planning to add more disks to the storage which might change the existing block device paths/

The fix for this will actually be in ceph-disk, ceph-deploy pretty much passes the device unmodified.

ceph-deploy osd: error: argument HOST:DISK[:JOURNAL]: must be in form HOST:DISK[:JOURNAL]
The actual error is due to the colons in the by-path name. The argument parser is using colon as a delimter. One possible solution is to add parameters --data-path and --journal-path for this case.

With the by-id path which does not have embedded colons:
