nf ceph osd

The nf ceph osd command creates a Ceph OSD (Object Storage Daemon) on a specific node and disk.

OSDs are where your data lives. Each OSD maps to a single physical disk. Ceph distributes data across OSDs using CRUSH rules to ensure redundancy and availability. For a production cluster, you’ll typically create one OSD per available disk on each worker node.

You can find available disks using nf disks list.

$ nf ceph osd --node <node-id> --disk <disk-id>
