Ceph » Orchestrator

The unit files created when adopting OSDs include a few chown calls to handle simple (ceph-disk style) OSDs, and also include a call to ceph-volume lvm activate, to handle LVM OSDs. The problem here is that ceph-volume lvm activate fails for simple OSDs, and this in turn causes the OSD to not start. Last time I was working on this (see https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/45129), I didn't hit this problem, but something must have changed in the meantime. Whether that's a new systemd version, or a slightly different error handling path, I'm not sure, but the point is it would be best if we only generated exactly the correct commands, depending on the type of OSD, rather than including both the chown and the ceph-volume lvm activate calls in all cases.
