I appreciate you had a bad experience, but don't believe that all others will gracefully and without issues automagically handle any kind of disturbances when parts of the clusters come up at different times and have their member disks checked at different speeds before being allowed in again. Not saying ceph is perfect, but work long enough in the storage sector and you'll see all kinds of odd surprises, and when total power loss happens, vendors are quite likely to shrug it off just like the replies you got here, in a "well don't get more outages" fashion. -- May the most significant bit of your life be positive.
