Description of problem:

6.3.3. Adding an OSD with the Command Line Interface

We give the following example.

# parted /dev/sdd mklabel gpt
# parted /dev/sdd mkpart primary 1 10000
# parted /dev/sdd mkpart primary 10001 15000
# mkfs -t xfs /dev/sdd1
# mount -o noatime /dev/sdd1 /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-4
# echo "/dev/sdd1 /var/lib/ceph/osd/ceph-4  xfs defaults,noatime 1 2" >> /etc/fstab

This does not set the type of the partitions correctly and they remain at the default which utilities like ceph-disk, (possibly udev), etc. will not recognise. We should probably add commands to set the correct type, in this case they would be the following.

# sgdisk --typecode=1:4fbd7e29-9d25-41b8-afd0-062c0ceff05d -- /dev/sdd
# sgdisk --typecode=2:45B0969E-9B03-4F30-B4C6-B4B80CEFF106 -- /dev/sdd

Additional info:

An example that demonstrates the issue.

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/dummyhdd bs=1M count=1536
# losetup /dev/loop0 /tmp/dummyhdd
# parted /dev/loop0 mklabel gpt 
# parted /dev/loop0 mkpart primary 1 1000
# parted -s /dev/loop0 mkpart primary 1001 1500
# partprobe

# ceph-disk list
