I did have some similar issues and resolved it by installing parted 3.2 (I can't say if this was definitive) but it worked for me. I also only used create (after disk zap) rather than prepare/activate.

Try using 'ceph-deploy osd create' instead of 'ceph-deploy osd prepare' and 'ceph-deploy osd activate' when using an entire disk for an OSD. That will create a journal partition and co-locate your journal on the same disk with the OSD, but that's fine for an initial dev setup. ________________________________ [cid:image001.jpg@01D21F20.4BAD0350]<https://storagecraft.com> Steve Taylor | Senior Software Engineer | StorageCraft Technology Corporation<https://storagecraft.com> 380 Data Drive Suite 300 | Draper | Utah | 84020 Office: 801.871.2799 | ________________________________ If you are not the intended recipient of this message or received it erroneously, please notify the sender and delete it, together with any attachments, and be advised that any dissemination or copying of this message is prohibited. ________________________________ -----Original Message----- From: ceph-users [mailto:ceph-users-boun...@lists.ceph.com] On Behalf Of Tracy Reed Sent: Wednesday, October 5, 2016 3:12 PM To: Peter Maloney <peter.malo...@brockmann-consult.de<mailto:peter.malo...@brockmann-consult.de>> Cc: ceph-users@lists.ceph.com<mailto:ceph-users@lists.ceph.com> Subject: Re: [ceph-users] Ceph consultants?

Hi Peter, I agree, setting up Ceph isn't very complicated. I posted to the list on 10/03/16 with the initial problem I have run into under the subject "Can't activate OSD". Please refer to that thread as it has logs, details of my setup, etc. I started working on this about a month ago then spent several days on it and a few hours with a couple different people on IRC. Nobody has been able to figure out how to get my OSD activated. I took a couple weeks off and now I'm back at it as I really need to get this going soon. Basically, I'm following the quickstart guide at http://docs.ceph.com/docs/jewel/start/quick-ceph-deploy/ and when I run the command to activate the OSDs like so: ceph-deploy osd activate ceph02:/dev/sdc ceph03:/dev/sdc I get this in the ceph-deploy log: [2016-10-03 15:16:10,193][ceph_deploy.osd][INFO ] Distro info: CentOS Linux 7.2.1511 Core [2016-10-03 15:16:10,193][ceph_deploy.osd][DEBUG ] activating host ceph03 disk /dev/sdc [2016-10-03 15:16:10,193][ceph_deploy.osd][DEBUG ] will use init type: systemd [2016-10-03 15:16:10,194][ceph03][DEBUG ] find the location of an executable [2016-10-03 15:16:10,200][ceph03][INFO ] Running command: sudo /usr/sbin/ceph-disk -v activate --mark-init systemd --mount /dev/sdc [2016-10-03 15:16:10,377][ceph03][WARNING] main_activate: path = /dev/sdc [2016-10-03 15:21:10,380][ceph03][WARNING] No data was received after 300 seconds, disconnecting...

Where am I going wrong here? Thanks! -- Tracy Reed
