Hi Frederic,

Thanks for the additional information.

What happens if you don't do that ? ceph-disk should be able to handle a disk 
without this step.

Other than this the preparation looks fine.

Since it worked when you repeated the command prepare on the previous disk, 
maybe it will also work on this disk ? Could you try and send the output of

ceph-disk -v  prepare /dev/sdc

as well as the udev debug output when you try that ? 

Maybe it's related to the fact that blkid does not have ID_PART_ENTRY_ (could 
it be that the root cause it that udev itself does not support it or partially 
supports it) ? Maybe it's a race condition if it works the second time around. 

Cheers
