I am trying to add some new disks to a brand new server that is part of the cluster. When I try to add an OSD i get the following errors. This is running the very latest 5.1-51 with the very latest Ceph 12.2.4

root@virt04:~# pveceph createosd /dev/sdc
file '/etc/ceph/ceph.conf' already exists

Of course the file already exists the cluster is LIVE! I just want to add more disks to a server that never participated in the OSDs before?

It appears even through the GUI it fails with same error?

The path /etc/ceph/ceph.conf is normally a symbolic link to /etc/pve/ceph.conf. You obviously did not used pveceph tool to setup your ceph server?
