Ah, you are fine then. I think i misread your original post.Not to worry - other three nodes in the cluster do not use RAID array. Only node 1 was configured this way because it was different hardware (Dell R620). The other three nodes are Dell R610's with hd controller that supports pass thru mode. We have ordered another R610 to rebuild the failed node.
You can remove the OSD from crush using this:Although I reported that the removal of the OSD's worked perfectly, there remains one issue. Seems that the Proxmox GUI still shows the mon & osd's. I suspect that I must manually edit the ceph.conf file to remove them?
# ceph osd crush remove osd.ID
You may also have to remove OSD authentication key. But since the original node no longer exists, i am not sure if you have to. Here is the command:
# ceph auth del osd.ID
Just remove the MON using ceph mon remove command?
