Hi All,

I need to rebuild an OSD which is failing to start. The cluster was built with 
Ansible and I wish to use it to re-create the OSD as
well. I get that I need to zap the OSD device to blank it and also do a osd rm 
and osd auth del to clean the osd device, but I'm a
little confused about the journal.

In a non Ansible world I would specify the OSD device and exact journal 
partition when running ceph-disk. However in an Ansible
world, it looks like it just passes the whole device to ceph-disk which would 
normally create new partition at end of the device.

I'm struggling to find the logic in ceph-disk which decides if a journal should 
be reused or not. Ie how can I make sure the journal
partition on NVME device is reused instead of a new one being created at end of 
device?

Thanks,
Nick
