Hi,

Thanks for the interesting discussion.

However, adding the new OSD in pve gui currently gives this problem:

> create OSD on /dev/sdj (xfs)
> using device '/dev/sdl' for journal
> ceph-disk: Error: journal specified but not allowed by osd backend
> TASK ERROR: command 'ceph-disk prepare --zap-disk --fs-type xfs --cluster ceph --cluster-uuid 1397f1dc-7d94-43ea-ab12-8f8792eee9c1 --journal-dev /dev/sdj /dev/sdl' failed: exit code 1 

/dev/sdj is the new OSD, as seen by the OS, and /dev/sdl is our journal 
ssd. The journal ssd currently has 7 partitions, 5GB each, holding the 
journal for 7 OSDs on that host, all added using the pve gui. PVE 
created each partition automatically.

However, it looks as if this time pve tries to use the WHOLE ssd for a 
hournal..? Should it not create an 8th partiton on /dev/sdl..?
