Documentation #8854
Clarify potential problems from ceph-deploy purgedata command when osd disks are mounted
0%
Description
When running the ceph-deploy purgedata command on a storage node the command will end up making later installations a much more manual and difficult process.
"... if you’re on a storage node with mounted filesystems, it cannot remove /var/lib/ceph completely and subsequent attempts to install even after manually umounting the filesystems will result in a not quite working server. The /var/lib/ceph directory structure will not be created, bootstrap key missing, etc."
Could we modify the documentation to include this gotcha?

- Status changed from New to Closed
This bug has been judged too old to fix. This is because either it is either 1) raised against a version of Ceph prior to Luminous, or 2) just really old, and untouched for so long that it is unlikely nowadays to represent a live documentation concern.
If you think that the closing of this bug is an error, raise another bug of a similar kind. If you think that the matter requires urgent attention, please let Zac Dover know at zac.dover@gmail.com.
