I reinstalled one of the three proxmox ceph nodes with new name, new ip.
I removed all lvm data, wiped fs of the old disks with:

Code:
dmsetup remove_all
wipefs -af /dev/sda
ceph-volume lvm zap /dev/sda

Now when I create osds via gui or cli they are always filestore and I dont get it, default should be bluestore regarding documentation.

Code:
pveceph osd create /dev/sda -db_dev /dev/nvme0n1 -db_size 75


Code:
root@pve-04:/# cat /etc/pve/ceph.conf
[global]
         auth_client_required = cephx
         auth_cluster_required = cephx
         auth_service_required = cephx
         cluster_network = 10.6.6.221/24
         fsid = aeb02f58-8b3d-4b5d-8cf2-a16af4959bbf
         mon_allow_pool_delete = true
         mon_host = 10.5.5.221 10.5.5.223 10.5.5.225
         osd_pool_default_min_size = 2
         osd_pool_default_size = 3
         public_network = 10.5.5.221/24

[client]
         keyring = /etc/pve/priv/$cluster.$name.keyring

[mds]
         keyring = /var/lib/ceph/mds/ceph-$id/keyring

[mds.pve-01]
         host = pve-01
         mds_standby_for_name = pve

[mds.pve-03]
         host = pve-03
         mds_standby_for_name = pve

[mon.pve-01]
         public_addr = 10.5.5.221

[mon.pve-03]
         public_addr = 10.5.5.223

how did you determine they are filestore?

what is your pveversion -v ?

GUI says filestore, all other osds from other nodes are bluestore.

I'm running into this same issue with v8.1.3. If I create an OSD that uses a separate block.db the UI shows the OSD as filestore. While the CLI ceph call shows it as bluestore.

Update: Looks like the display may default to filestore as it eventually updated to bluestore.
