A containerized ceph deployment which didn't pass any overrides but used only the defaults found in:
-e /usr/share/openstack-tripleo-heat-templates/environments/ceph-ansible/ceph-ansible.yaml
Produced a resources.WorkflowTasks_Step2_Execution Heat resource whose Mistral ansible-playbook call did not pass the osd_scenario parameter to the ansible-playbook --extra-vars run [1]. This resulted in a overcloud deployment with 0 OSDs (0 OSD containers) though the deployment succeeded and evidence of the failure was not seen later until a tempest run.
Though ceph-ansible should better handle this scenario and fail as per BZ 1502841 [2], the defaults alone should work, provided that the ceph overcloud node has the device /dev/vdb.
