Gave a try of it, so all the 3 osds finally failed :/ Not sure what went wrong.

Do the normal maintenance things, ceph osd set noout, ceph osd set norebalance, 
stop the osd and run this command:
ceph-bluestore-tool bluefs-bdev-migrate --dev-target 
/var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-0/block --devs-source /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-8/block.db 
--path /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-8/
Output:
device removed:1 /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-8/block.db
device added: 1 /dev/dm-2

When tried to start I got this in the log:
osd.8 0 OSD:init: unable to mount object store
 ** ERROR: osd init failed: (13) Permission denied
set uid:gid to 167:167 (ceph:ceph)
ceph version 15.2.13 (c44bc49e7a57a87d84dfff2a077a2058aa2172e2) octopus 
(stable), process ceph-osd, pid 1512261
pidfile_write: ignore empty --pid-file

>From the another 2 osds the block.db removed and I can start it back.
I've zapped the db drive just to be removed from the device completely and 
after machine restart none of these 2 osds came back, I guess missing the db 
device.

Is there any steps missing?
1.Noout+norebalance
2. Stop osd
3. migrate with the above command the block.db to the block.
4. do on the other osds which is sharing the same db device that want to remove.
5. zap the db device
6. start back the osds.

Hi,

I think 'ceph-bluestore-tool bluefs-bdev-migrate' could be of use here. I 
haven't tried it in a production environment yet, only in virtual labs.

Regards,
Eugen
