DESCRIPTION

       ceph-disk is a utility that can prepare and activate a disk, partition or directory  as  a
       Ceph OSD. It is run directly or triggered by ceph-deploy or udev. It can also be triggered
       by other deployment utilities like Chef, Juju, Puppet etc.

       It actually automates the multiple steps involved in manual creation and start of  an  OSD
       into  two  steps  of preparing and activating the OSD by using the subcommands prepare and
       activate.

       ceph-disk also automates the multiple steps involved to manually stop and destroy  an  OSD
       into  two steps of deactivating and destroying the OSD by using the subcommands deactivate
       and destroy.

       The documentation for each subcommand (prepare, activate, etc.) can be displayed with  its
       --help option. For instance ceph-disk prepare --help.

AVAILABILITY

       ceph-disk  is part of Ceph, a massively scalable, open-source, distributed storage system.
