yes, the initial mon address is needed,but there seems to be more that's out of order Upon comparing the old node to the new node, there are some directories and files not installed by the Ceph Gui. I will go through the Ceph documentation for manual installation

Network interfaces: Old node:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces # network interface settings; autogenerated # Please do NOT modify this file directly, unless you know what # you're doing. # # If you want to manage parts of the network configuration manually, # please utilize the 'source' or...

There are Ceph MONs running for each node, Status "unknown", no improvement after restarts Syslog entries for the new node: Jul 07 14:24:46 pve-guest ceph-mon[934462]: 2023-07-07T14:24:46.332+0200 7ffb8e978a00 -1 monitor data directory at '/var/lib/ceph/mon/ceph-pve-guest' does not exist: have...

@Alwin, the pvceph purge command is part of the script provided by Younex. Just "pveceph purge" applied to two nodes of my cluster (without any else removed) allowed for a fresh installation of Ceph, the third node did need some directories to be (re)created, some ownerships to be restored...

Thank you for that detailed script, you seem to be the first person to recover a failed ceph installation. I tried your recipe on a failed ceph node on my otherwise smoothly running PVE cluster. After running your script, my next step was "pveceph init" -no error messages- but then "pveceph...

Hi, i get the same error message "global_init: error reading config file." when i run the "ceph-mon ... " as user ceph (as recommended in the manual installation instructions. Could this be related to the file ownership on file ceph.conf? 181729 1 -rw-r----- 1 root www-data 517 Jun 11...
