If I understand the meaning of the "--output-dir" parameter of cephadm 
correctly this only says where to store the ceph.conf file and does not say for 
example where the data of the MON is stored.

Based on the ceph-mon man page it looks like the correct parameter is called 
"mon data", as I deduct from the following man page phrase:

"The mon datapath refers to a directory on a local file system storing monitor 
data. It is normally specified via the mon data option in the configuration 
file." (Source: https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/man/8/ceph-mon/)

So how would I pass that parameter to cephadm? and would that data path be a 
path inside the container or outside on the host?
