What's more, I was planning on using this single journal device (SSD) for 4 OSDs. With filestore I simply told each OSD to use this drive, sdb, on the command line, and it would create a new partition on that drive every time I created an OSD. I thought it would be the same for BlueStore. So that begs the question, how does one set up an SSD to hold journals for multiple OSDs, both db and wal? Searching has yielded nothing.
