Hello,

Trying out Ceph for the first time, following the installation guide using
ceph-deploy. All goes well, "ceph -s" reports health as ok at the
beginning, but shortly after it shows all placement groups as inactive, and
the 2 osds are down and out.

I understand this could be for a variety of reasons. Quick question, I've
read on another mail that you have to manually mount  the partitions on
reboot and that this is not mentioned on the guide. I am testing this on a
cloud provider and I wanted to test Ceph with 2 servers on the local
filesystem e.g. I just created folders under /var/local/osd0 as in the
tutorial without attaching a storage volume to the host and mounting it. Is
this possible, or does Ceph always require partitions to be used for osds?

That would be a reason causing this failure.

Cheers
Dimitris
